My project is gonna be \u201cLeaves as map\u201d. The skeleton of leaves somehow speaks the same language as maps to me. The skeleton of leaves are random but organized patterns seem like they can lead people somewhere.<\/span><\/p>\n

To represent the connection and similarity between the system of leaf skeleton and man-built map, the first thing I’m gonna do is to scan the skeleton of a set of leaves(maybe three)<\/span><\/p>\n

Then I’m going to set up three groups of 5 people to aim for their assigned direction starting from the same point (point state park maybe) and use a GPS app to track them. People are not going to have clear instructions on how they are going to get there but using their own will to go to the destination as a flaneur using a compass.<\/span><\/p>\n

At last, I will overlap the GPS pattern of the path that each people has walked and the leaf skeleton to expose the similarities and differences between how people construct a path and how mother nature forms a path. This process of meditating trip is the \u201cmachine\u201d that I’m going to make, and the final typology outcome will be a set of diagrams as shown in my drawing.<\/span><\/p>\n
