Doodle My Google

I created this poster in 2018 for Doodle My Google, a project in which illustrators were invited to respond to unusual Google search terms submitted by random internet users.

The prompt I received was:

Will Eircode Catch On?

Eircode is Ireland's post code system, which was introduced in July 2015. While there was some trepidation initially as to whether the system would prove viable, I can happily confirm that it has indeed caught on!

A nearby tablet shows the Post-Code of Hammurabi, which was established so that senders of complaints could be sure their tablets went to the right place.

Archaeologists have confirmed that cheaper shipments were made without resorting to the Post-Code, however this led to errors which commonly involved the towns of Ah and Um rather than the city of Ur.

The Post-Code tablet shows the slightly increased but guaranteed-delivery charges laid down after consultation with the priests of Markdup.

Shoutout to the time my partner and I got so excited to see Ea-Nasir's hate mail in person that we failed to notice the Code of Hammurabi next to it

Edging him until he’s completely delirious and when you tell him to “say the magic words” he accidentally says “I love you”
