How would you make this board made of slats of wood? (picture included)

I'm creating a board which I can paint a world map upon in white (I think acrylics might work?) and hang upon my wall. What kind of wood is this, and how would you piece them together so that they stay together, and then put upon my wall after painting a world map upon it?

Sizing I'm going for is 36 x 1 x 24.

Stabilized Black Palm! This is the first & only time we'll be working with this stuff. It's incredibly beautiful but incredibly hard to work with. Also, it's extremely dangerous! Even stabilized, this stuff sends out sharp splinters! Safety glasses and/or Face Shields should be worn if turning!

Just pulled another batch of burl out of the vacuum chamber after a 5 day soak in Cactus Juice Stabilizing Resin. We've got it loaded in the oven and ready to be cured! This wood will become knife handle materials and wood turning blanks in the next few days!

Snoop the Shop's D-O-DOUBLE-G is exhausted after a long day running through the woods, hunting down burl wood from trees that the recent ice/snow storms have taken down.
