"To Think Is To Travel."
"... one needs to project oneself outside of oneself,
to forget one's own position, in order to explore
this cartography in rhizomes."
"The passage from a culture of stabilities and of objects,
with its Fordism and its industrial standards,
to a culture of instabilities and of flux
with its cyberspace and it's instantaneous communication,
gives rise to a new 'Folie du Voir' on a global scale."
"The map of the world is our interactive 'envelope',
in a world with neither protection nor envelope."
What is the gap between the virtual online world and the real physical world, in regards to of Web 2.0 and user-based input, in any one city?
To what extent do we think when we travel, in comparison to the days before iphones, trip advisor etc?
To what extent to we really explore, absorb and understand a city, when relying on, or are addicted to, new technologies such as urbanspoon, facebook places etc?
