We designed a poster for a new course at Iowa State University that will be taught by Mikesch Muecke in the Spring of 2020. The design took the course content—the intersection between preservation and technology—as a starting point, pulling design elements from conventional ideas about preservation (the Ball jar) with contemporary technologies (Google Earth vehicle with lidar scan recording 3D data) and a Zollstock (a foldable German measuring stick made out of wood).
