The book View from Mount Temple deconstructs the modern convention of translating data into graphic form by presenting plain text GPS data, which is practically unintelligible as raw information, in the form of a journal. This bland, homogeneous text functions as analogous to early accounts of exploration, often filled with tedious factual data such as weather conditions, reckoning of positions, and the passage of time. Each line of text represents a three second interval over the course of a 9 hour climb up Mount Temple.
