A Single Point Does Not Form a Line provides a kind of culminating manifesto for the slow map--arguing that instead of drawing lines and tracing drawn lines, that we make maps of traces. This short chapter provides a launch pad to begin to look anew at cartographies past and maps yet made to find their most resonate and responsible lines.
