Abstract
Situated in the contemporary landscape of the Rust Belt, this project surveys the programmatic “afterlife” of infrastructural networks and the environments of the post-industrial city. This investigation critiques mapping conventions of decentralized or vacant conditions from ecologies of the dormant industry. This investigation will be delivered through a conversation of shared living strategies, settlements of humans and non-human entities, and imagined tactics for understanding their environments. Therefore, it is imperative to discuss this work through the medium of geographies. Geography as a medium allows information, material knowledge, and authorship to be applied across an intellectual territory.
