Course Description
In this course, students spend their summer semester exploring New York City, applying a range of site-specific research techniques. They each select and investigate distinct locations within the city, building detailed visual archives and a series of analog and digital maps, diagrams, and data visualizations intended to communicate observations, characteristics, and experiences particular to their locations. The work produced in this class is also intended to be utilized as a reference for the development of their thesis projects or as a means of building worlds that future stories they craft could inhabit.
