The idea quickly grew beyond “Project Status”, and has become a hub of all sorts of internal Panic information. What you’re actually looking at is an internal-only webpage that updates frequently using AJAX which shows: * E-Mail Queue — number of messages / number of days. * Project Status — sorry for the heavy censorship — you know how it is! * Important Countdowns * Revenue — comparing yesterday to the day before, not so insightful (yet). * Live Tri-Met Bus Arrivals — when it’s time to go home! * The Panic Calendar * Employee Twitter Messages * Any @Panic Twitter Messages — i.e., be nice! They go on our screen!

Imagine a future where immense amounts of trash didn’t pile up on the peripheries of our cities: a future where we understand the ‘removal-chain’ as we do the ‘supply-chain’, and where we can use this knowledge to not only build more efficient and sustainable infrastructures but to promote behavioral change. In this future city, the invisible infrastructures of trash removal will become visible and the final journey of our trash will no longer be “out of sight, out of mind”.

Here & There is a project by S&W exploring speculative projections of dense cities. These maps of Manhattan look uptown from 3rd and 7th, and downtown from 3rd and 35th. They're intended to be seen at those same places, putting the viewer simultaneously above the city and in it where she stands, both looking down and looking forward.
