Maps, mapping and impressions of a place. A map is a two dimensional abstraction of a location, so how can it tell us something relevant of a place? And what is relevant information, and relevant for who?
These are questions I've been thinking about while researching the Espoon keskus area for some mapping of my own. What has been told, what kind of information is being distributed and is this information at all useful?
Most of the material I've come by is...honestly...quite horrible and useless. I hope to make something more interesting and fun with my own project.
And there might be some inspired poetry on the way.
river bed of past
highway to a promise
of a future lost
