From image overload to the main source: Information overload.
⌇
In his 1982 book Megatrends, John Naisbitt (professor of future studies) wrote “We are drowning in information but starved for knowledge.” While written over 30 years ago, that line is as very true today. I interpreted ‘information’ as from a abundance of sources, however the main one is the internet. It's a sense of ‘drowning’ in the overwhelming wealth of information available.

'Information overload' by Jihyun Ham. Is This Tomorrow? The internet allows us to have unbelievable amount of information, however it also creates negative effect on accuracy of the information, and individuals could suffer from overloaded amount of information. This 3D poster visualises information overload in physical way, and shows how it could be hard to find the real message.
⌇
Information Leak’ by Richard Evans, 2009. Richard Evans created this typographic artwork using laser-cut letters that appear to be flowing out of a tap like water. the design was created to represent the information overload in today’s society and as Evans describes ‘(how) it over-flows into our lives’. the metaphor of water overflowing from a sink is intended to communicate this. all the letters are hand painted and laser cut from wood.
