TED|Chris Jordan: Picturing Excess

Artist Chris Jordan shows a powerful way to give back meaning to often desensitizing numbers that are thrown in our faces on a daily basis. His goal is to make these issues matter more once we can feel an emotional attachment to them - like distorted images in a huge mirror.

More examples of his work are available at Running the numbers , An American Self-Portrait.
