With a macro scale perspective of the human social and geographical patterns of the students on campus, the ACL team has noticed an anti socialism that is perhaps unique to UW. Our aim was first to decide if what we experienced was worth mentioning, and then to find out potential reasons as to why it is such. From here we would decide potential solutions to make a productive change.
The preliminary stages of this project investigated the organization of space on campus within the ring road. The intent was to highlight the planned space of campus and to decide how this space may affect the population (social and geographical) patterns of UW’s daily community.
In the process it became clear that campus is distinctly fragmented into several component zones – Arts/Business/Accounting, Math/Computer Science, Engineering, and Science. Further investigation looked at high and low density locations on campus and how particular traffic patterns flowed into and out of these locations and, on the macro scale, between the greater faculty oriented zones.
The idea was to use the postcards to express our research, opinions, and suggested solutions through a series of images and implicative text.
