- 1. James Corner States, “What distinguishes the map from the tracing is that it is entirely oriented toward an experimentation in contact with the real. The map does not reproduce an unconscious closed in upon itself; it constructs the unconscious”. In the studio or past studios you have been did you do mapping or tracing?

- 5. Would it be better to adapt a city (eg. Milwaukee and LA) over time? Or to manifest a perfect city then populate it (eg. Paris and Rome)?
