On March 23-24th i’ll held a conference in Bari, at the Polytechnic, about “Wayfinding and the Image of the City”
During the first day i’ll talk about the history of wayfinding and maps, then we’ll start a short workshop about the visualization of the city. The students will be asked to think of their relationship with the city, their imaginaries, landmarks or key-points. So Bari itself will be mapped from a subjective point of view, in order to obtain and to visualize a kind of “Personal Geography”, using mind-mapping, diagrammatic languages or photographic surveys.
It’s an experiment we’ll start on that event and try to continue in the future, with the same students and maybe new discoveries.
Everybody who’s gonna pass by Bari is invited to the event.
