This is a piece I created as part of a second year course at OCAD called Think Tank. We were each given a geographical square of downtown Toronto at random and throughout the semester we explored a variety of different issues concerning our given area. For this particular assignment we were to create some form of map that showed information not traditionally found in map form.

I woke up at 5am and biked to my square for sunrise at 6am and took a photograph of three different views of the area. I continued to repeat this same procedure every hour on the hour until sunset at 6pm. I then took these photographs and converted them into 256 colour-grids that showed the average colours in each photo at every hour. The collection of these colour-grids became what I referred to as a Colour Map of the St. Lawrence Market neighbourhood.
