To me, the mapping connects different kinds of information. According to intentions of the author, it is represented in different graphic ways. Not only conveying information but it has to represent the potentiality and possibility. After my second time reading Corner’s article, I realized more what he tried to illuminate. Applying to our project of Venice, it makes me try to think things beyond the information I've already gained. Further, it is important for me to think the the way I want to demonstrate my cognition about the map and represent the potentiality of the site. Keep the map objective and open. In addition, Cosgrove said, "To map is in one way or another to take the measure of a world, and more than merely take it, to figure the measure so taken in such a way that it may be communicated between people, places or times.”I would like to use creative ways to explore things beyond our understandings and try to communicate to the readers.
