This class will focus on “mapping” as a common thread to look at urbanism and landscape and analyze it as an instrumental tool in how we see, imagine, and act upon our environment.
In this class, we will study base texts at the intersection of mapping, landscape, settlements, and planning, and discuss cases set in different geographic contexts of the global North and South. Each session we will explore a different mapping angle to open up different key debates about landscape and planning. We will work through different landscape histories and design contexts to ultimately arrive at today’s accelerating crises, and the disciplinary or political responses to which mapping can contribute. Reading and discussing texts and cases will go in tandem with group-based projects exploring the systems that support our daily lives and landscapes. |
