Strip Map by Malaysian Eddy

November 21st, 2007 12:39 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Create a strip map modeled on Ogilby's maps.

"A strip map is a process map, a diagram of how to go from one place to another; route and destinations are predetermined. Ordinary maps are state maps describing the whole countryside; the user decides where to go from wherever he is."

Your map should provide an intimate description of what might be seen on a journey, from a slow moving vehicle or on foot.

Be sure to examine the example image below.

This is a strip map of O'Farrel Street. It begins at Van Ness and ends at Powell.

I am a very visual person. This map is intended to be 10 inches by 150 inches. Try and walk down my neighborhood block and find all of these things!

Mad Props!
But why do the pics squish in Safari?

No, It was my poor photoshop resizing. I was so tired of working on this thing that I resized it pretty quickly. I will fix it later.

OK I resized so that they don't look all squashed.

Really beautiful. The focus on simple details beats out a wider view any day.

Fantastic. Your neighborhood look compellingly lively in these photos. I'd love to visit one day.
