.M.A.P.S. .M.A.P.S. Official maps fix, superimpose and anchor a view of a place; they are embedded in a hi-story they help to construct and insure.

They can themselves become a place; disrupting the hierarchy of interpretation (map) and land, or of coordinates (system) and locations.

Even if we go far away from here to some big city, places around here keep stalking us. If you did wrong, you will hear the names and see the places in the mind. They keep on stalking you, even if you go across oceans. The names of all these places are good. They make you remember how to live right, so you want to replace yourself again. -Nick Thompson, in Wisdom Sits in Places
