Geographic Doppelgangers
The Other Path
The Other Path is a project by C5 that combines landscape exploration with what I might call "speculative geography". C5 members went on a trek to collect GPS data about the Great Wall of China. They will sift through the mass of data they obtained about the Great Wall, to discover the most similiar terrain that exists in California (where C5 is based).
The project's intention is to "create exploration in a time when everything has been explored." An interesting objective, one that raises political and social questions about the value of exploration and its impact.
"The Other Path" is part of C5's Landscape Initiative. (Posted by Michelle Kasprzak)
