Description: Every day we map. We map how we get from a to b. We map when were somewhere new, and somewhere weve been many times before. We map ourselves, our days, our thoughts, memories, what we want to mark, save and share. Today it seems, that most of the time, despite all this mapping, we actually don't have a clear sense of where we are.
