“Memory is the fourth dimension of every landscape” (Janet Fitch): it is along this trajectory that the present research unfolds, focusing on the relationship between historical stratification, perceptual experience, and representation. The contribution proposes the adaptation of the methodological framework developed within the N.O.D.E.S. project to the context of the Assietta Road, with the aim of testing its scalability and fostering knowledge of an Alpine historical-landscape heritage. The methodology is structured into four phases – historical reading, technological observation, integrated analysis, and visual narration – and generates a dynamic archive of the landscape capable of interweaving memory, interpretation, and innovation. The central figure is the technological nomad, a wandering interpreter of the territory, who traverses, documents, and reworks the traces of their path. Through drawing – both a cognitive act and an open-ended form of thought – and the most advanced techniques of representation, experience is transformed into language, giving shape to a new grammar of the landscape. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the adopted approach, opening up to a shared mode of representation that restores to the landscape a cognitive, narrative, and culturally significant dimension.
