headmap

“Headmap examines the social implications and applications of location aware devices, augmented social networks, wearable computers, thinking tools and semantic network interfaces.“

The Headmap.org Manifesto is a must-read for anyone actively working towards living in a virtually lit world. Where everything can be shaped and saved — where the internet becomes your extrinsic brain — where we reshape ourselves to connect and a new reality is born.

“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

everything in the world, animate and inanimate, abstract and concrete, has thoughts attached” (headmap.org)
