Trip Book - digital and physical combination
First ideas
Despite the differences from this concept of the 80', "teleportation" is real nowadays. Last year I came from the other corner of the earth to Germany and after some hours the only perception which makes me understand the distance was the view through planes and trains windows. I arrived to Weimar and I could, like many other students, leave this place without seen more than the facilities of the University, the supermarkets and the down town streets. In the past, the communication between neighbor cities was through unclear paths across the outskirts. In the current way of living these are residual areas but it doesn't mean that are no interesting. I decide to take a map from Weimar and randomly visit different points of these undervalued zones and pick up an element which then reminds me that place. One leaf was the object that made that connection between my mind and the place and also a time connection due to the fact that leaves mutate when the times goes by.
Some digital collected data
Digital let us made things simple. By creating an small program in Processing we can access information like names of streets, distances and paths to reach every leaf. Also digital data like pictures doesn't change throw time so that phenomenon gives us the chance to compare, for example physical leaves with digital ones and see how they have changed.
Some physical collected data
