We build our subjective maps by combining different methods: photography, film, and sound
recording; we use home-made tools and sensors toexplore the visible and invisible electromagnetic city; we make measurements by taking water from street vendors and performing DIY biological analysis(with webcams made into microscopes); we adoptpsycho-geographical approaches in exploring territory; we produce expressions of personalsubjectivity; and we have meetings with experts and
witnesses.

Digital technologies have made possible thefashioning of more dynamic and flexible depictionsof ancient spaces, all readily linked to metadatathat documents the level of accuracy of restoredcomponents. A rich range of sensorial stimuli canbe added to kinetic viewing to shape more robustrecreations of the original environmental
experience. Depictions of actual times of day, year,and century reaffirm the essential temporalaspects. Various experimental scenarios can bepresented to ascertain the impact of alternativereconstructions, climatic conditions, andhypothetically distributed ephemera.
