Welcome to an open, collaborative mapping experiment!

Once you visit this website several times, you may find that it changes. If this is the case, it means that the experiment goes well and the platform is vivid. In any case, you are not only invited to explore, but also to get involved in creating the content. Images, texts, sounds and GPS-tracks can be submitted through info(at)indexmap.org or you can get registered there as contributing author.

This website consists of two categories by now: maps and minutes (an ongoing protocol/description how this website got into life). So far, categories resulted from conceptual interests and suggestions of the contributing protagonists. They are open, can be extended or changed. Contributors are welcome to write in English, Lithuanian and/or German, but not every text will be translated – a problem of capacity.

Maps try to represent areas. They highlight relationships between the elements in those areas – objects, regions and themes. Map making rise different questions about (public) space, reality, time, authorship, power of creation, design options and representation.

This project deals with artistic-epistemological inquiries, such as: How do we perceive the world? What means reality? How do signs, concepts and objects relate to each other? However, it also asks more politically active questions: What would be our sensitive interaction with environment? What are our responsibilities? How do we meet an agreement? The project does not aim to answer these questions. Rather it urges to imagine, pose and precise them while walking, observing and creating.
