This was a study of the various ways to map a route from Cowgill Hall to Mish Mish. This was my final map for this study, which depicts the different surfaces that one walks across on a specific course. Each section is larger or smaller relative to how long one walks on that surface before walking onto another. It surprised me how many surfaces a person can walk across in such a short amount of time. This map shows that one can change surface nearly thirty times along this path.
I enjoyed this study because it was enlightening to discover how many different ways mapping can be conducted. In the beginning, many of us just thought of the clear-cut form of mapping that we've been exposed to our entire lives. But to learn mapping can be conducted in so many different ways and based on so many different things is incredible. It truly makes you look at the world differently and teaches you to interpret such a seemingly simple idea in complex and new ways.
