Mental Map Pilot: Duncan J Flynn ’15
Duncan “DJ” Flynn was the artist behind this map. He is a senior at Bowdoin who also hails from northern Maine. The basis of his inclusions draw upon three main factors: the places where he attends class, the places where he goes running, and the places that he drives to. All of his inclusions are either located on campus or within the area roughly spanning one mile south of the campus. He included many specific locations, including Searles Hall and Fort Andross, which he includes by name. Other spots, such as “running streets” or “shops,” are left more ambiguous but are still nonetheas important to his map. His inclusion of driving routes are also often paired with landmarks, such as the church at the southern corner of campus and the bridge over the Androscoggin River towards Topsham. Noticeably he left out the northern part of campus, citing that “he would have included it but ran out of space on the page.”
