ol' mcDonal' had a (bit)farm (Patreon)

One of the projects I'm working on this summer for pocket money is illustrating a study on data-centers and their impact in cities!

Be it an impact on citizens living near a super noisy bitfarm (bitcoin data-center) and it driving them mad, or data-centers giving cities a financial boost when purchasing land or electricity, or their (ever growing) impact on the environment...

The researchers wanted to spruce up their research paper with more personalized drawings rather than just photos, to make it more pleasant for readers' eyes. I thought it was a great idea! So here I am, drawing data-centers, town halls, and maps this month, things I've never drawn before and didn't think I would :)

I usually stick to my own projects, my own comics, but the subject is one I believe important: studying data-centers' different impacts and vulgarize the results found. I think more people need more ways to understand exactly how it all works! So we're aware of how we can use the internet in a more intelligent, and less wasteful way.
