My first investigation of ‘pathways’ will be to look at a traditional London Monopoly board and gather information on the locations and their statistics of the environment and inhabitants.

Comparing and contrasting two different places within a small area will lead me onto a further exploration of how our lives still cross paths despite of variables such as social class, education and wealth.

Monopoly (game)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 
The Fast-Dealing Property Trading Game
Monopoly is an American-originated board game published by Parker Brothers. Subtitled “The Fast-Dealing Property Trading Game”, the game is named after the economic concept of monopoly — the domination of a market by a single entity. It is currently published by the United States game and toy company Hasbro. Players move around the game board buying or trading properties, developing their properties with houses and hotels, and collecting rent from their opponents, the ultimate goal being to drive them into bankruptcy.
