#headmap

Here’s a headmap I made that more or less maps out connections/splits between my system and when they happened marked by little x’s.

If anyone has any headmaps of their own they’d like to share I’d gladly see them! This isn’t the only type of headmap I’ll be making either. Keep an eye out!~

Ten years ago: before cloud computing, the Internet of Things, and Web 2.0. were commonly understood ideas, Ben Russell in his Headmap Manifesto presciently wrote:

there are notes in boxes that are empty

every room has an accessible history

every place has emotional attachments you can open and save

you can search for sadness in new york

people within a mile of each other who have never met stop what they are doing and organise spontaneously to help with some task or other.

in a strange town you knock on the door of someone you don’t know and they give you sandwiches.

paths compete to offer themselves to you

life flows into inanimate objects

the trees hum advertising jingles

yeah like I wouldn’t compare Iggy’s irredeemable trash personality and overt rascism to azaelia bank’s fucked up statements but still…

i feel like i’ve noticed ppl on tumblr (i’m  ~really~ generalizing here though) tend to overlook the blatant antisemitism and transphobic remarks azaelia banks never apologized for at all just because she’s made a lot of good statements about issues pertaining to racism, which i totally respect... but i really can’t like her, as a trans person, because of the shit she said. I really want to like her but i can’t get past that stuff she said/posted on twitter. :/ 

why no bud, bud?

Seems like everyone is talking about Headmap. It's a pretty cool project, compiling research on how "location aware devices" can be used for social change. There's a lot of information on this site, but I have a hard time reading the tiny, light grey font and the lack of text formatting makes the material hard to scan. Still, they're doing well to compile large amounts of theory regarding place, magick, and technology. They've built a prototype of what they're talking about, but it's still very rough. So far it's basically a map with links to web pages that deal with the places on the map. I think Hiptop Nation is more interesting right now, and it isn't even trying to be any sort of revolutionary psychogeography tool.
