The way we live leaves traces on the earth. The tools we use to situate ourselves in the landscape leave marks and inscriptions of these processes on the ground, becoming a direct reflection of the society that formed it. The map acts as a record of these inscriptions; is an outcome of a gathering of elements for the construction of a narrative about the site's reality.

Talking about the Internet - we need a Plan B

In this funny TED video, accomplished computer theorist Danny Hillis looks back at the early days of the Internet, how small it was and how big it has become, still working on the same Plan A. But Danny says, we should all think about Plan B, to not suddenly see the Internet go down, similar to the Financial meltdown not long ago.
