Atlas Gesellschaft u Wirtschaft - Otto Neurath

Commissioned by the Bibliographisches Institut in Leipzig, the atlas Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft is one of the best-known examples of Otto Neurath’s “Viennese method of pictorial statistics” (at the time it wasn’t yet called ISOTYPE) in action. It was published as a large-format (30×45 cm) folder containing 130 plates, 98 of which display maps and charts relating to topics such as history, migrations, economics, urbanism, etc. A complete PDF version of Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft can be downloaded for free here.

The maps and charts were originally hand-crafted by the staff from the Gesellschafts- und Wirtschaftsmuseum in Wien (Social and economic museum of Vienna), whose core team included Neurath, “transformer” Marie Reidemeister (later Marie Neurath) and graphic designer Gerd Arntz. Futura, which had been adopted by the Museum for all its printed matter some time in 1929, was used for titles, captions, numbers, etc., but the 30 plates of end matter (afterword by Neurath, statistical sources, index, contents) were typeset in Berthold-Grotesk (bottom picture).

The last couple of years have seen a steady stream of publications devoted to Neurath, his method and his work, most notably Isotype: design and contexts, 1925–1971, edited by Christopher Burke, Eric Kindel and Sue Walker. Though more modest in scope, Robin Kinross and Marie Neurath’s The transformer: principles of making Isotype charts is also a treat.

Ni por todo el oro del mundo! - Iconoclasistas

Los mapeos se realizaron en Jujuy y Córdoba, como parte de las actividades de la Unión de asambleas ciudadanas (UAC); y en Buenos Aires, Bariloche, Tucumán, El Dorado (Misiones) y en Ciudad del Este (Paraguay), a partir de la convocatoria del equipo de pedagogía popular Pañuelos en Rebeldía. También en mapeos que organizamos durante la «gira de la cosmovisión rebelde», años 2008-2009, con movimientos estudiantiles y culturales en Córdoba, Rosario, Resistencia, Mar del Plata, Olavarría, Tandil y San Andrés de Giles. En esos espacios no sólo se compartió saberes e información, sino que también se fue corrigiendo lo sistematizado, fortaleciendo así el desarrollo de un trabajo en etapas. Un momento crítico se generó cuando a los participantes les planteamos lo siguiente: teniendo en cuenta que diseñaríamos mapas de circulación pública ¿deberíamos mostrar también las resistencias y logros de las organizaciones? Este dilema se resolvió de forma positiva en un segundo encuentro de la UAC en Córdoba, cuando decenas de delegados de asambleas y comunidades votaron a mano alzada la importancia de visibilizar las resistencias y organizaciones en lucha.

Anti Eviction Maps

The Anti-Eviction Mapping Project is a data-visualization, data analysis, and storytelling collective documenting the dispossession and resistance upon gentrifying landscapes. Primarily working in the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, and New York City, we are all volunteers producing digital maps, oral history work, film, murals, and community events. Working with a number of community partners and in solidarity with numerous housing movements, we study and visualize new entanglements of global capital, real estate, technocapitalism, and political economy. Our narrative oral history and video work centers the displacement of people and complex social worlds, but also modes of resistance. Maintaining antiracist and feminist analyses as well as decolonial methodology, the project creates tools and disseminates data contributing to collective resistance and movement building.

Coming Home - Margaret Pearce

To mark the 150th anniversary of the Confederation of Canada, the Canadian-American Center at the University of Maine is pleased to release a new map, Coming Home to Indigenous Place Names in Canada. The map honors Indigenous place names in Canada and the assertion of Indigenous authority through place names.

Commissioned by Dr. Stephen J. Hornsby, Director of the Canadian-American Center, Coming Home to Indigenous Place Names in Canada was researched and designed by Dr. Margaret Wickens Pearce. The map depicts Indigenous place names across Canada, shared by permission of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities and people. The names express territorial rights and describe the shapes, sounds, and stories of sovereign lands. The names mark the locations of the gathering places, the communities, the places of danger and beauty, and the places where treaties were signed. The names are ancient and recent, both in and outside of time, and they express and assert the Indigenous presence across the Canadian landscape in Indigenous languages.

The map does not depict all of the Indigenous place names of Canada, nor are all Indigenous Nations and communities represented. Beyond the map’s names are thousands upon thousands more, an ever growing and expanding atlas of intimate, geographical knowledge and experience.

The intention of the map is to create respect for Indigenous homelands and sovereignties, and a feeling for and understanding of the place names.

The Canadian-American Center does not profit from the production and sale of this map. Members of the public are invited to purchase a copy for the cost of printing and postage. Contributors of place names to the map are invited to email the Canadian-American Center for a discounted rate.

Imaging Homelessness in a City of Care

Imaging Homelessness in a City of Care was a participatory mapping project undertaken with 30 single homeless people in Newcastle-upon-Tyne (UK) in 2014. The project’s objectives were threefold: to pilot an innovative mapping-based methodology; to offer single homeless individuals an opportunity to comment on local service provision and delivery; and to inform and challenge public perceptions of homelessness. In what follows, we outline the context for the project and the reasons for adopting a mapping approach. We then discuss the research process and the various insights generated. Finally, we reflect on the effectiveness of the methodology used.
