Change in the offset of the Earth’s axis of rotation from the offers geoid origin point, from the birth date of the artist through early May 2015

offers I can also do customized personal axis wobble prints, send me a convo!

The axis of the Earth's rotation does not remained absolutely fixed, it changes direction slowly over time. This is a record of the change in the direction of the Earth's axis from my birth date, 27 November 1971, to 6 May 2015. The reference point for the shift is marked by the +0 at the bottom of the print. The motion of the rotational axis is affected by seasonal changes, ice cap capacity, magma currents in the mantle, convection currents in the core, and interactions with other planets and the Sun. It is interesting to note that while this wobble does have a random component, it exhibits a regularity over a 14-month period.
