Sumedicina: A Story Told Through Infographics

By John Farrier in Book & Literature on Feb 5, 2010 at 4:34 pm

Sumedicina is a short story by Jana Lange and Kim Asendorf told with the modern medium of infographics. It’s about a scientist who works for a biotech firm called Sumedicina, which secretly creates and unleashes viruses on the world — and then sells the only cures. The caption for the above infographic reads:

John has worked for 17 years at Sumedicina. His salary rose steadily. But with the increasing responsibility, his hair became measurably less.

The easiest way to read the story is to go to the link, which is the flickr set for the story, and view the slides sequentially.

    That’s really bad grammar, even for a lame pun.
