In August 2015 we had our first set of interns come work with us in Oblio's Portland office. We weren’t completely sure what the internship was going to entail, but we knew we wanted to take a project from start to finish with them. Whelp, here it is.

The New Yorker released a pretty scary article ( which you can read here ) a few weeks before the internship began and everyone was freaking out, so we thought it might be a good subject matter to explore. We briefly discussed creating something that was actually informative, but decided we’d prefer to have a little bit of fun.

The earthquake may take away our electricity, but it will never take away our eccentricity!
