Although it is not a reading, I found the video about counter mapping very interesting and engaging. I had seen this video before in a class that I took in high school, but I saw it in a totally different light after taking this course. This video displays how visualization can mean more than one might first think. To outsiders these pieces of art just look like pictures of the landscape thrown together but to the Zuni it was maps of the places that they had been millions of times. But the question is presented if this can really be classified as a map. This idea is explained greatly by my colleague RC which compares the value to evoke feelings and histories for the Zuni people rather than being an accurate representation of the area. This is still an interesting visualization, but we have to question in accuracy for everyone.
