Week 2 -- 3 points and a ?

Denaturalizing the Act of Production
- In order to reduce the ideology of the producer being engrained in the map, there should exist some way of understanding how/why the map came to exists as seen by the viewer.

Denaturlizing the Act of Reception
- The map should communicate how it is to be used/interpreted to insure that it is read correctly.

- Readers/viewers need to be in are more realistic than symbolic relation to their surroundings and what's presented on the map. (Landmarks as opposed to street names)

What would be a good way for viewers to remove the ideology from the map and still get the important information being conveyed?
