WRONG TURN

Every route diagram is a record of somebody getting lost.

01THE FILE

The current file. Route diagrams redrawn from directions that did not work — a diversion board pointing at a road that closed years ago, a hand-drawn map with the north arrow on the wrong side, a transit line printed one station short.

Graphically this is the most structured drop so far: line weights taken from signage standards, arrowheads at fixed angles, a legend for symbols that do not correspond to anything. The discipline is the point. It reads as official until you follow it.

Discharge print on the tee so the diagram sits inside the fabric rather than on top of it. The cap carries the north arrow, deliberately rotated.
