It's time to clear out the mailbags and feedreaders before heading out to a hockey game.
- Philadelphia artist Daniel Heyman is exhibiting watercolours and dry point etchings made during interviews with prisoners of the infamous Abu Ghraib prison. The works recount their stories of abuse at the hands of American forces. (Via Signal Fire.)
- We Make Money Not Art reviews Hyper-Border: The Contemporary US-Mexico Border and Its Future by Fernando Romero. Armed with a provocative design and smart infographics galore, Hyper-border "provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region."
- Speaking of infographics, HistoryShots produces beautiful prints of informational graphics, telling stories like the race to the moon, the history of France, and the internet country codes of the world.
