As I began to explore maps more and I have created more of a concept for my project, Pinterest has proven most useful for my primary research. I have my own Pinterest for my research for class. It’s been very useful for collecting images of places around the world. Pinterest isn’t the most reliable source but that fairs well for my project. I want to explore “anonymous” places created due to the internet. Quite often you’ll find pictures of houses or scenery which no context on where it is or what it once was. I find this really fascinating as the internet takes almost all meaning out of everything, even places. Everything is being shared all the time and places begin to lose meaning and purpose. This is why Pinterest and the internet has been my most used source of primary research as they fit in with what I am exploring.
