Speed Demon: A Junior Conceptual Transport Project by Melissa Pinkner (2017)

In the Silicon Valley, when people imagine modes of transportation with wheels, they might picture fancy teslas driving around downtown Palo Alto, google cars driving themselves through mountain view, or maybe ambitious cyclists gliding through the Santa Cruz mountains, to onlookers seemingly about to ride off the winding roads. Whatever the image, there is a common theme of speed, efficiency, or advanced technology, which I feel reflects the culture of Silicon Valley very well. My picture paired with its title is meant to be ironic, and poke fun at the uptight and straightforward paths of life people follow here. While some may drive a sports car to get from point A to point B, don't overlook the people taking their time on their hippopotamus surfboards.
