Daniel Belasco Rogers & Sophia New / plan b Three year Drawing, Berlin, 2007-2009, Sophia New/ plan b Three year Drawing, Berlin, 2007-2009, Daniel Belasco Rogers/plan b The artists Sophia New and Daniel Belasco Rogers (who work together under the name plan b) constantly record all of their journeys using GPSs. The two drawings here document everywhere they went in Berlin (where they live) between the years 2007-2009, they show two lives that are intrinsically linked yet are separate. This daily practise requires making sure they have enough batteries, downloading the data periodically before it is overwritten and producing maps and visualisations of everywhere they go. Daily repeated journeys become main arteries that define how and where they are living: a thick, reiterated street, due to GPS imprecision, bleeds out of the width of the actual street that it traces. The thin, one-line marks attest to unique and memorable journeys to new territory in a familiar city.
