Non-Site



"By drawing a diagram, a ground plan of a house, a street plan to the location of a site, or a topographic map, one draws a "logical two dimensional picture." A "logical picture" differs from a natural or realistic picture in that it rarely looks like the thing it stands for. It is a two
dimensional analogy or metaphor - A is Z."

A Provisional Theory of Non-Sites, Robert Smithson
