Filmed almost entirely in Google Earth, On Exactitude in Science (2022) is a three-part video work melding fact and fiction, archive and allegory into a speculative documentary about the rise of digital mapmaking among technology companies. The series is named after Jorge Luis Borges’s famed short story about an empire’s failed attempt to build a perfect 1:1 map and picks up where the story ended. A new, tech-savvy generation stumbles upon the map’s ruins and begins piecing them back together, confident they can rebuild and even improve upon the perfect map without also recreating the empire. Narrated by an AI speech synthesizer whose style and tone match that of Borges’s fictional chronicler, the video revives the classic map-territory fable for the digital age.
