A collection (and a full documentation) of my experimentation with maps in 2025. #30DayMapChallenge
Motivation: everyone uses maps. when we travel, when we learn history, when we read fiction/non-fiction books, but few actually make them. my goal for this challenge is to learn how to make my own maps to support these activities i'm interested.
Rules:
- document everything, here.
- stay flexible with the plan.
- work on it when time allows, no need for 30 consecutive days
The Big Plan:
- day 1-2: build maps using basic shapes.
- day 3-9: build interactive maps, visualize data.
- day 10-16: experiment with physical maps.
- day 17-23: experiment with aesthetic, 3d maps.
- day 24-30: i don't know that yet, let's find out later.
Inspiration/People to Follow:
- Topi Tjukanov: the original creator of the #30DayMapChallenge.
- Wendy Shijia: inspiration for aesthetic and physical map experiments.
