Protect and Survive

This book was produced by Margaret Thatcher’s government during the Cold War in May 1980. It advised people on the safest way to stay alive after a nuclear attack. I had used this as inspiration before. It helped my type out the paragraph on the information sheet.

This booklet also has an action checklist much like my early ideas of leaving and returning home checklist. This makes me think that it would be a great idea to add this concept within my work.

MAP (Manual of Architectural Possibilities)

This is a collection of speculative double sided A1 manuals on individual issues. I had looked at these before but not in great detail. They use real information then add a twist to exaggerate the impacts and implications, which is exactly what I want to do with my work. However, the detailing and time spent on these MAPs create a new level I only wish to slightly achieve.

I believe my changing my concept to a booklet will allow me to explore more areas of interest and can help me map out my future world in a more clear way. This will look less like the MAP which I cannot stand against but instead I can sit with the more real life informative booklets.
