MAP ONE is an interdisciplinary cooperation between the information designer Gerlinde Schuller (Amsterdam) and the artist Claudia Weber (New York). MAP ONE was founded in 2000 with the aim of connecting the fields of design and art on a content-related level. Gerlinde Schuller is head of The World as Flatland in Amsterdam. She is specialized in information design, the conception and design of complex information systems. Besides working on commissions for international clients, she is interested to establish experimental platforms for information design. www.theworldasflatland.net Claudia Weber is a New York based artist whose work investigates the cultural signification of architectural spaces and material. www.claudiaweber.net MAP ONE performs visual communication as research. For us, this includes active international exchange, the continuous observation of societal developments and an own unique viewpoint. Our interest in complex systems simultaneously implies analyzing and questioning conventional structures. By establishing very different types of connections between themes and structures, we create our own method of developing concepts. We develop specific formats for each project, e.g. by reworking the structures of common applications, thus narrating documentations in an unconventional way.
