These images are part of a large collection of fifty city maps tracing geotagged photos from Flickr and Picasa. Eric Fischer determined the speed at which photographers travelled the various urban landscapes by analyzing their photos' timestamps and geotags, and plotting them on an OpenStreetMap background layer. The maps are ordered by the number of pictures taken in the central cluster of each city, and include various metropolises like New York, London, Paris, San Francisco, Tokyo, Berlin, Rome, Barcelona, Vancouver, and Hong Kong.

Special thanks to: Anne Schnabel, Dr. rer. nat. Rudolf Schnabel and Prof. Johannes Bergerhausen and John Townsend. Thank you for supporting my project: Dr.We might commonly say we live in a complex and interconnected world, and even though this tends to be a fairly consensual statement, there's no better way to grasp the extend of nature's convolutedness than to look at the interdependency of its innumerous ecosystems. The images shown here are renderings of the metanetwork for the San Francisco Bay food web. The network consists of 163 nodes, each node being a guild. In total, they represent approximately 1,600 species of invertebrates and fish, as well as four nodes representing various types of autotrophic producers. There are 5,024 links or trophic interactions between the guilds.
