The Tree Ottawa app is in its final stages, with most of the content inputted. Now, I’m trying to reconcile the final changes:

  • Accessibility (locations, vision, tech literacy and affluence)
  • Politics and Theory:
    • Gender imbalance
    • Moving away from black and white narratives, need more nuance with local acceptance and resistance
    • Lack of diverse representation (all my D&D guys are white)
    • Using fake people to avoid the big ethical questions, but it’s still imposing a narrative on a landscape
  • Intagrating layered landscapes
    • Integrating place in digital (meaning, senses, community =place in a placeless realm)
    • More focus on reading lanscapes, evolution of trees and canopy
    • Focus on who and why of landscape use
    • Landscape as an evolution
  • Integrating more textual sources (Greber plan and photos, but what about resistance?)
  • Who is real?
  • Copyright, media usage (what is gurella?)
    • NCC DIgiLab photos
    • Clipart
