empty maps

the personal map highlights the countries you’ve been to in red. i subtracted everything but the red places and found myself facing these three continents (above). it reminds me of the first map showing the ‘new world,’ this ptolemaic projection from 1511 (below). socratic definition of wisdom: the only thing i know, is that i know nothing. how useful would it be to have a map of what we don’t know and where we haven’t been?
