Mapping

9^th November

Today’s class ma’am explained to us about what mapping is and what kind of maps do we actually have to make for the project. We had to make maps on the basis on the 5 senses, history – culture and people (crowd). First we have to make a rough layout on how base map is going to look like. Once that is finalized, we have to make that on an A2 map. Then according to how many maps we are making, we have to trace that on tracing paper. The history – culture map includes the changes that have taken in that place (then and now), second map is for the number of people that visit the place, crowd on specific days or timings and for the last one we have to the 5 senses. We can use legends and colors to differentiate different things.

We sat in groups and we first made the base map of how we think ISKCON temple looks like. Then we wrote down the maps that we thought we would make.

For the next class we have to finish mapping and come up with a proper idea of our installation so we can start making the prototype in class.
