We are used to being informed instantly about each and every event that happens in any place in the world. The reporting of news and broadcast are so ubiquitous, that it can be used as an indicator for the interests of its recipients.

My visualisation uses data from the New York Times from 1980 until the present day and shows the amount of reports that were made about each place in the world, how the relationships between two places are established and the topics that move the world.
