Six countries represented. Medieval relic book as reference. Paintings of woman in traditional dress inhabiting the map of the country they were attacked in. Folded boats of information taken from online articles where women described how violence affected them.
Mom and stepdad touristing around amsterdam, blatantly ignoring the fact that they have a gps navigator in the bag. "Uses too many batteries" they said and promptly got lost.

"Mapping Out Paradise" an exhibition by Marc Mulders and Claudy Jongstra in Museum of Modern Art de Pont in Tilburg, the Netherlands
Auburn University forestry researcher John Gilbert recently created an instructional booklet, “Mapping Your Land: An Overview for Landowners,” to help landowners use five online mapping program. It allows landowners to utilize maps, aerial photography, topographic layers, soils information, data collected with GPS units and even a visual simulation, such as adding images of trees on open fields.

Definitions of mapping on the Web:
- the study of the position of genes on chromosomes.
- the process of making one image conform to the size, shape, and/or texture of another image. See also Bump mapping, Displacement mapping, and Environment mapping.

In our synthesis, we have concentrated on finding the place for each activity in the Park where it is possible to let the surrounding nature dominate over the activity. In the establishment phase, many priorities have to be made, due to a lack of funding.
When establishing an activity, it is critical to measure the correct size against other activities, even those planned to come in a later phase. Also, it is in line with the total concept of the Entoto Natural Park to profile the activities from the very beginning.
Every activity should be of high quality. For example, creating a wedding park does not mean that it should be in the style of other wedding parks in Addis Ababa.
A bird eye's perspective of the park (Annex 1) illustrates our suggestions for the location of the activities, that were agreed upon at the Park Committee meetings.
The spatial distribution is a result of the analysis of criteria for location and from the synthesis.
Description of Main Attraction Points
Data on the existing attraction points, which we had asked about, were collected by Napoleon Tsegaye in October 1994, who kindly made an interview in Amharic with his grandfather,
Ato Gebre Kidane Wibishet, native to the area.
Geographical Situation
Addis Ababa is situated 9° north of the equator, in central Ethiopia. The park area, on the mountain of Entoto, extends from the northern edge of the city, at an altitude of 2 600m and further north over the mountain crest at almost 3 100 m.
From several spots, there is splendid outlook over the sprawling city and the five high solitary mountains, in the southwest to the southeast (Menagesha, Wachecha, Furi Zukuala and Yerer).
Facing north from the top ridge, one looks out over vast plains, towards Sululta and some bare mountains. The mountain ridge on which the Park is located constitutes a big water divider.
The northern slope drains into the Blue Nile, and the precipitation from the southern slope will end up in the Awash river.
This has the curious result that two raindrops falling at the same time just a few centimetres apart, will have quite different destinies: one will after a long journey reach the Mediterranean Sea, whereas the other will pass through the city of Addis Ababa, eventually evaporating in the Danakil Desert, as the Awash River never reaches the sea (Håkan Blanck and Pia Englund, Entoto Natural Park 1995).

Progetto Arcevia 2.0/12
In 1972, Italo Bartoletti initiated Progetto Arcevia, a vision of an existential community which simultaneously enriched the local community of Palazzo d’Arcevia (Italy) while at the same time providing a site for creatives – artists, philosophers, architects – to come together and collaborate.
40 years later, Bartoletti’s vision has been embraced by a group of young London-based designers, Unit +. In September 2012, five members of Unit + journeyed to Riserva Privata San Settimio, the very site that Bartoletti first cultivated for Progetto Arcevia, and which is still owned by his family today. Using experiential and live mapping techniques across a range of different media (conceptual documentaries, sketches, models and a fairy tale inspired comic book), Unit + explored, documented and analysed their impressions of the site.
Through their dynamic engagement with all aspects of the Riserva, they experimented with colour-coded navigation systems, a proposal for a ‘floating’ meditation room and a towering sundial. Through the support and enthusiasm of Bartoletti’s family and the Riserva, Unit + will return in Spring 2013 to initiate these projects.
Crucial to Progetto Arcevia 2.0/12 is the fact that the fundamental ideals remain the same; Unit + are committed to operating as “a thought factory and creativity lab”, a team that values collaboration and cooperation. Their work at the Riserva in 2013 represents not only a continuation of one man’s vision, but the revitalisation of concepts that are intrinsic to collaborative design.
Credits for each sketch forthcoming (just collecting for workshop documentation)
Inspired by Burak's networking workshop, we conducted some short pen & paper mapping exercise today. Some great ideas in there...
