Running the Numbers is an interview of Chris Jordan over at The Morning News. Who is Chris Jordan? Chris Jordan is a Seattle-based photographic artist who portrays the detritus of our mass culture—piles of cell phones, aluminum cans, garbage, and the like. His work is exhibited widely in the U.S. and Europe, and has been featured in print media, blogs, documentary films, and radio and television programs worldwide. What’s depicted above is something that disgusts me. This photograph “depicts 60,000 plastic bags, the number used in the U.S. every five seconds.” You read that correctly. Every five seconds.
