Non-human Measurement
TIME: Nov-Dec 2022
MEDIUM: Poster Series
From Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man to Le Corbusier's The Modulor, humans are obsessed with anthropometric scales, such as in industrial design and architecture where anthropometry is an indispensable part. The unit of measurement itself is in fact anthropocentric, for example, there are units like a foot that use the human foot as a unit.
This project attempts to use the measurement system as a breakthrough, using different species as units to measure the central park. From the smallest birds to the largest mammals, from plants and animals to non-living things, decentering humans from the great numerical data contrast.
