Primary and Other Remote Locations

Algorithmic pattern-matching of the landscape (utilizing the C5
Landscape Database) on Lemay Island and the Silver Island Mountains, Box
Elder County UT, Aug 12th-15th, 2K5.

For "Primary and Other Remote Locations", the South East corner the
Center for Land Use Interpretation's Remote Location property on Lemay
Island was used as an input point.

A database containing topographical data for the surrounding area
(including Lemay Island, Floating Island and the Silver Island mountain
range which includes Crater Island) was searched, seeking points with
similar topographical characteristics. The database search isolated five
topographical others of the CLUI Remote Location; or as we call them,
the "Other Remote Locations".

The "Other Remote Locations" were visited with the help of GPS, four
wheel drive, a[nd] hiking. The sites were documented, with the primary
goal of producing landscape paintings in which agency of site selection,
often assumed to be the natural province of the painter, is turned over
to the algorithm and the data; digesting the landscape data through
pattern matching, and allowing the data to tell us where to go.
