“… es un mapa sencillo, hecho a mano. Con sus distancias a ojo, con sus bordes arbitrarios, con sus senderos torcidos.
Para quien lo dibuja, el mapa es un ejercicio de observación o de memoria. Cada trazo representa un lugar al que se ha viajado y que se conoce bien.
Para quien lo encuentra, el mapa es la promesa de una experiencia. Cada línea ofrece una aventura que pide ser vivida. Los puntos quieren volver a ser paisajes en nuevos ojos, las rayas quieren volver a ser caminos bajo nuevos pies.”

Antipodes
If you dug through the earth, you’d most likely hit water.
He reminded me about The Earth Sandwich. The idea is that you partner up with someone that is located at the exact opposite side of the world. You place a slice of bread and so does the other person - there you have it, an Earth Sandwich!
Has anyone ever made one?

James Corner and Alex S. Maclean - Taking Measures Across The American Landscape (1996)
‘The techniques of representation are never neutral and architecture’s abstract means of imagining and realizing form leave their traces on the work. To understand representation as technique (in Foucault’s broader sense of techne) is therefore to pay attention to the paradoxical character of a discipline that operates to organize and transform material reality, but must do so at a distance, and through highly abstract means.’Stan Allen - Practice: Architecture, Technique and Representation (2000)

FM Radio Map plots the different locations of FM commercial and pirate radio stations by connecting only the stations that can be received in that location. This is done by drawing power lines in pencil on the back of the map, which conducts electricity from the radio to the front of the poster.
