Our group project is based upon a mashup of three ideas pulled from the reading. Chaos, non linear systems and global positioning systems. Caroline and Ursula each made a layer to a three part drawing,"the generation of random, unpredictable behavior from a simple, but nonlinear rule” – vs. order (Wilson 208). We imposed a few rules but left everything with design up to chance. see the pink text in reference to the rules we imposed upon ourselfs
Our intent was to create a piece that addressed these three concepts uniquely but still had some relation to our personal life and practice. We took images from google maps, and we each made a piece in response and then layered them on top of each other to create a piece
My piece is a quick mashup of areas in brag creek where I have had the most fun biking, I collages the tire tread I traced directly from my bike and mixed it into a map of the area where I live to show Calgary. I used different scale variations of maps and different locations to create one ambiguous one of brag creek.
"geologists study these to understand the earths past present and future"- we were kind of guided by these maps that we each used to highlight some sort of area that was specific to us in a way relating to the idea of memory, What interested me was this idea to change. over time these maps and places we look at, where we have been will look completely different. the map wont look like what it once was.
my process by taking parts of google maps-
How we related our pieces back together was having them overlay our representation to Calgary in the bottom left corner.
to increase this chaos element
we talked about
- specific areas we were going to do, and having to have the inclusion of the Calgary area in reference to each other
-It had to have some sort of a map sense to it
-open materials, go as crazy as you want
we didn't talk about the map style or any aspect of color.
