The Iranian Internet - An Infographic

What is the Iranian internet? Who is using it? Why is it being censored and by whom?

These are the questions that I asked myself after the 2009 elections in Iran. For my master thesis I decided to design an infographic explaining the state of the Iranian internet. This infographic is using both data and information to tell the story of the internet in Iran in 6 content panels. It is inspired by Persian rugs, Iranian architecture and Islamic calligraphy.
