Pt. 1 - A treasure hunt around London to various shops/agencies/places of significance for our course.
Pt. 2 - Mapping 'A visual representation of a place and its dynamics on a plane surface by means of linkage.'
- Make work that describes the links to your chosen areas.
- The end product must take the form of a folded map.
- Consider the context.
= Make a map to the places sent to on a treasure hunt.
Initial ideas.
literally describe the route and possibly experiences (construct a story around the directions which may give the journey sense of importance/history - to give the a map some soul) The text could be laid as a block of text, for the sakes of interest of juxtaposition, which would be difficult and impractical, or each passage put in geographic place upon the paper.from point to point, an approach resulting in a potentially clean image, although it may be interesting to add some 'noise' to the elements created, to play against this. Perhaps only the lines of the path will stand - without geographical reference, this would demand of some other navigational system to be useful.- An Os Adaptation - simply an aesthetic exercise.
I remember that a simple compass can be made out of a piece of cork, a needle, magnet an glass of water, so the graphic practice would be first of all, instructions. This could be accompanied by textual directions or a map.
