Probably not. However, it is something to think about, as the reality would be startling - as much as you’d think so, the village would only have 7 computers, and only 1 person in the World Village would be educated at University level.</p> <p>These facts are something that designer Toby Ng has thought about very carefully, and turned the results of his findings into a series of twenty infographics depicting ‘<a href="http://www.toby-ng.com/graphic-design/the-world-of-100/" title="The World of 100">The World of 100</a>’. Although aesthetically beautiful, with sharp lines and bold, vibrant colours, these infographics are often horrifying. </p> <p>The posters look as though they have come straight out of a children’s book; is this to mirror the naivety of those that are most likely to be looking at them on their computers?</p> <blockquote> <p>“Look, this is the World we are living in.”</p> <p>- Toby Ng</p> </blockquote> </blockquote>http://peterchane.tumblr.com/post/21373827356http://peterchane.tumblr.com/post/21373827356Thu, 19 Apr 2012 04:46:07 -0400
