Here are two double page spreads from my book A to B, which contain some early notes and sketches on the develoment of The A Game. The book they are taken from is an ongoing project using maps from a 1970s touring gazetteer of the british isles as the stimuli for drawing and collage.
These diagrams reference a number of starting points for the Game's development. Among those shown here are the five Chinese elements, alchemy, environmental damage and the politics of cartography, and Mammon. Mammon is the embodiment of callous avarice and fiscal corruption, an anthropomophic personification with roots in the Old Testament.
