This week we made intuitive maps to help us analyse, organise and interpret our ideas we are exploring about the space. I really struggled with how I was going to interpret my ideas through an intuitive map, but after a lot of thought, I figured out how I would display it. I started with writing out my key ideas and then positioning them in relation to each other depending on how they sit in my mind.
Rom here I was able to figure out how I wanted to display my ideas. I decided to do a vine wrapping round a structure to demonstarte the important ideas of structure and conformity. The stem demonstrated my main/priority idea, and the remaining ideas bled out from that from most to least important and relevant. Below is my intuitive map and my 150 words to explain the site.
150 WORD STATEMENT:
My intuitive map describes the structure and movement of the Mayoral Drive crossing outside AUT WG Building.
The criss-cross wooden structure is a symbol of the intersection and structure of the crossing and explains the subconscious conformity that exists within the space.
The creeping vines communicate the conscious organic movement in the space that rejects structure and signals.
They also explain the organization of my ideas and thoughts about the space and their importance and relevancy.
The main vine on the right of the page symbolizes my main idea in which all other ideas branch off.
The closer to the stem, the more relevant and prominent the idea is in my thought process.
The creeping vines indicate the relationships and connections that ideas have to others.
