Across Time: New Forms of Representation for Architectural Heritage Sites

Diagrams, even those that appear to be objectivedocuments, constitute an act of design. Visual theoristand cultural critic Johanna Drucker argues thatdata does not allow for inherently neutral visual representationand that all graphic expression involvesinterpretation. The design of the representationconveys a specific message or at the very least orientsthe audience toward a specific reading. If thesubject of study is an analysis of material change inarchitectural built work over time and the desiredoutcome is a multiplicity of readings, what form(s)can and should this representation take?
