History of Brickfrenzy 075
Map of the United States of America
January 12, 2003
After building some smaller mosaics, I decided I wanted to build a big one. A very big one. After pondering the situation for a while, I decided on a map of the United States of America, not because I'm overly patriotic or jingoistic, but because I thought it would make a darn good subject. With sharp dividing lines and large solid blocks of colors, it wouldn't be horribly complicated. Lengthy, but not complicated.
The final result is 288 x 192 studs, about 7.5 feet wide.
I took the map to 4 different fests (well, I took it to 3, and shipped it to a fourth) : Brickswest 2003, Brickfest 2003, Brickfest PDX 2003 and NWBC 2003. Each attendee at the fest put a 1x1 dot on the map to designate where they were from. Those dots are still on the map, and displayed in my basement.
