Across data, dance, distance and decay, this course explores the myriad visualizations of the spatial, from the rational to the poetic. It starts with a pencil and paper, as we examine the basic principles of graphic expression and ask what it would take to bring diagramming, visualizing, mapping and tabling into a radical, redemptive and emancipatory visual politics. Each week students will be required to submit a suite of drawings that brings together a well-established form of geographical visualization with a radical contemporary text of students’ choosing which demands more of our visual politics before completing a final visual argument that critiques both form and content.
