Connection and Co-operation.<br />
Elements of the data set have been grouped and connected,<br />
emphasised by drawing boxes and lines, to form new shapes<br />
and patterns. This represents the sharing of data, co-operation<br />
for mutual benefit, and achievement of synergy.<br />
Disruption.<br />
The printing surface has been torn into two pieces and the<br />
right-hand side offset. A dark printed line along the torn edges<br />
emphasises disruption. Horizontal lines drawn between data<br />
elements no longer connect. Co-operation has been disrupted<br />
and synergy has been lost.<br />
Obscuration.<br />
Images have been partially erased and masked in the printing<br />
and transfer process, a reference to lost data and lost<br />
opportunities as well as lack of public information about these<br />
matters.<br />
Distraction.<br />
A final layer of monoprinted colour and shape references flags<br />
as symbols of nationalism and distracts the viewer’s attention<br />
from the detail in the underlying layers. Much like meaningless<br />
populist slogans distract attention from detail and fact.<br />
