Project 3: Day and Night Maps of a LES Block
In your groups, create a map of day and night on your chosen block of the LES. Start by choosing what you want to map, then think out how this phenomena might change based on time of day. Be prepared to present your map and findings in class on Tues. 7/3.
1. Geographic location: with your group, choose a block on the LES (can be the same block as last project or a different one).
2. Decide what you want to map: people, pets, smells, trash pickup, colors, emotions... think about psychogeography and what we discussed in class. Be sure to choose something that you think will change from day to night.
3. Divide up who will observe the data, when and where they will observe the data, and how you will document these observations. What symbols/signs will you use to represent your data? Please go in teams, the LES is a pretty safe place, but it is NYC and I don't want anyone there alone at night under any circumstances.
4. Arrange your findings into two data maps: one that represents day, and one that represents night.
5. Be prepared to present your maps in class on Tuesday 7/3.
