Nikolas Schiller (born October 10, 1980) is an American blogger and drug policy reform activist who lives in Washington, DC. He is primarily known for developing Geospatial Art,[1] which is the name he gave to his collection of abstract fantasy maps created from kaleidoscopic aerial photographs, and co-founding DCMJ, where he helped write Initiative 71,[2] which legalized the cultivation and possession of small amounts of cannabis in the nation's capital.
