We Are Mapmakers

Anthony Doerr in The Morning News: “We are mapmakers, all of us, tracing lines of memory across the spaces we enter. We embed memories everywhere; we inscribe a private and complicated diagram across the landscape; we plant root structures of smells and textures in the apartments of girlfriends and the station wagons of friends and in the living rooms of our parents.”

(or their future mechanical equivalents)

Naa-aah, I think that maps are only made in the minds of people in some form that other people can decipher. Blood-hound scents are just dandruff.
