"The Trillion Dollar Game" - Paper, cardboard, acetate, LED lights
I read a story about how the biggest tech companies will spend over a trillion dollars on AI infrastructure this year. It sparked an idea.
This is my first editorial illustration based on current events - a miniature carnival booth built entirely from paper, with five stations reserved for the five biggest players in the AI spending race. Each one pumping cash into a data center, each balloon inflating at roughly the same pace. Nobody pulling ahead. Nobody stopping.
I gave myself three days to concept, build, and photograph it. That constraint pushed me in ways a longer timeline wouldn't have.
