Progress: April 3, 2009


It is quite interesting how the different waypoints configure visually on the Tongue Rug map, how they are bunched together or form a line of movement. It makes sense that placenames would reflect human migration: families with their members spread out and forming their own families through time. A sladdakavring in constant movement.

  • The Lapalme waypoints (purple markers) are concentrated outside of Montreal (from St-Jérome area to Granby) with a couple nearing the Saguenay and the North Coast.
  • A few of the Legault waypoints (pink markers) go as far as the Saguenay and Abitibi-Temiscamingue, but most follow the Outaouais river westward.
  • The Angerbauer waypoints (yellow markers) are northern: the Angers seem to start in the Gaspésie and go westward through the North Coast and Abitibi-Temiscamingue until they reach James Bay, while the two Bauers are situated on the 52nd parallel north.
