The first project for Mapping & Place: use a part of your body to measure a room/space. Then, write a short paragraph detailing your system and how you decided on a particular scale. For 1 point extra credit, video yourself measuring and post your video. 

​For this project I decided to measure the back porch with my feet in moccasins simply because I was reading through the lesson on my back porch and I had on moccasins. First, I moved a few things from the walls to make the process easier. Next, I measured my foot in the moccasin and discovered it equaled ten inches. I drew a sketch of the porch area and then walked around the perimeter, moccasin to moccasin, counting the steps and making notes on my sketch (included in the video). Finally, I figured out that my porch had a perimeter of 117.5 moccasins or 1,175 inches.

Class Assignment: Mapping Experiment Peel Projection.
Draw a map of the world on an orange using paint, ink or a marker. Take a picture of your orange. Now carefully peel your orange and take another picture of your orange peel projection. Eat your orange..

For this project I started with an ink pen. The ink didn’t work very well so I switched to markers and paint pens. Below are pictures of my orange "world." 






​I tried to carefully peel the orange but this orange would not cooperate. Let’s just say my world fell apart (picture on the right). I collected the pieces and began to put them back together. I attempted to arrange them in a cylindrical view
 but it was obvious that my world would never be the same so I had to make changes. I pinned the continents in place, let go of some of the pieces, and added some new things. My world is different but I like it. ​
