PICTURES MAPS SHADOWS Robert Adams, Robert Ferguson, Kristine Miller Spring 2003 It's likely that many people will recognize this image, which Robin Evans used as an illustration of different representational types in "Translations from Drawing to Building". It shows how shadows cast from the sun's light project orthographically, whereas shadows cast from a point source project radially. This phenomenon undergirds the relationship between photography and cartography, which are generally perspectival and orthographic representations, respectively. Thus, shadows (an unavoidable condition of architecture) became the medium through which to link architecture, photography, and cartography. next |
