bird's eye views...

japanfwy2

two pages from a 1965 japan architect magazine article on the nagoya-kobe expressway.

the top is a map/diagram of all 14 interchanges that occur between komaki and nishinomiya; the bottom is a photo of the otsu interchange (which you can match to the map above). i like very much the relationship of these images to the knots from a few days ago (as well as the visual language of abstract painting).

the linear pathways feel connected to drawing and writing; perhaps because even though they are maps, there is an implied trajectory through the images. at this scale it feels like a guide for moving hands...
