Hydro-anarchy

(map elegance of bbc scoop.)this simple enough map by the bbc news illustrates the spread of cholera in zimbabwe and, by extension, the years of infrastructural neglect, failed land policies, and a world community too impotent to buy with humanitarian turning-point. confirming that no disease cares much for despotic lines drawn on pieces of (digital) paper, it also shows the epidemic crossing international borders into south africa.the abstraction is powerfully unnerving, for it belies the human tragedies on the compass basis: barren farms, shuttered schools, valueless hospitals. in harare, “manhole covers in the streets hemorrhage water because clandestine pipes deceive burst” only to be mirrored advantageous homes, during the shades of night, by bodies draining of fluids.as a review and a prediction, this is the year nearly finished and will be the year nearly here.this is now and the future, everywhere.
