This report presents the case study for Kampong Ayer
walking trail and this project is conducted by two undergraduate students and a
researcher.
The development of a website-bruneitrails.com/org is the
virtual first step needed to initiate Brunei Darussalam’s National Trail System
which includes the Kampong Ayer trail. The system envisioned here consists of
an expanding set of walking routes of natural, cultural, historical and/or
recreational significance.
The goal for this project is to help the researcher
collecting information for the website in the future. Also, to produce a final
product that will be an image-text following Berger’s model.
Therefore, the main objective is to propose a circuit
walking trail for Kampong Ayer.
There are few different methods taken on this project and
one of the methods is by doing fieldtrip. In total, there were three times trip
to Kampong Ayer itself which lasted for about two to three hours long.
The primary focus of this trail is on the practise of
walking in the Kampong Ayer. The starting point for this proposed trail is at
Kampong Ayer Cultural and Tourism Gallery, and finished at the end of Kampong Ayer;
Kampong Burong Pingai Ayer.
Another method is through surveying. The survey of scenes
and elements in the landscape is a significant task. We needed to find as many
images of the inside of Kampong Ayer from Google, Yahoo and BT Click website
and from those images we had to identify the five most popular/top scenes and
elements of Kampong Ayer that are most pictured. Apart from that, we also had
to count the number of images that are already collected from the different
websites.
Collecting data for sights, sounds and smells are
essential to the trail. This method is carried out by using camera and sound
recorder. Those elements (sights, sounds and smells) happen simultaneously
during any given moment, not in sequence and are important for creating the
image-text.
Weekly meetings are a
must to keeping updates about each other’s work and findings. From these
meetings, we gather all the information and compile them to be recorded on our
work journal.
The final product (result) of this project as
mentioned earlier is an image-text. Image-texting is a type of mapping which is
popular among ‘spacemakers’.
Alan Berger is
a Tenured Associate
Professor of Urban Design and Landscape Architecture at Massachusetts Institute
of Technology.
The image-text following the Berger’s model
that we have edited and done using the most advanced program for photo editing;
Adobe Photoshop, re-presents the Trail to those interested in knowing it.
The image-text both conveys information and attempts to bring the experience to
viewers.
