Internet i mitt huvud

Kevin Kelly uppmanar folk att rita sin egen mentala karta av Internet i The Internet Mapping Project:

The internet is vast. Bigger than a city, bigger than a country, maybe as big as the universe. It's expanding by the second. No one has seen its borders.

And the internet is intangible, like spirits and angels. The web is an immense ghost land of disembodied places. Who knows if you are even there, there.

Yet everyday we navigate through this ethereal realm for hours on end and return alive. We must have some map in our head.

I've become very curious about the maps people have in their minds when they enter the internet. So I've been asking people to draw me a map of the internet as they see it. That's all. More than 50 people of all ages and levels of expertise have mapped their geography of online.

Bilder från projektet. Jag gjorde ett försök att göra en faktiskt läsbar karta över en vanlig surfdag med papper och penna, den förlorade sig snabbt i linjer som korsar varandra till en trasselsudd, så som de flesta hittills inlämnade kartor i projektet tycks ha tenderat att bli. Måste det verkligen se så rörigt ut? Gör ett nytt försök med digitala verktyg under veckan.
