Kidmapped!

2009Aug2020:37

Tim Wright's Kidmapped! journey has resumed and I've built a little mash-up of the mapped media he's made as he travels the route of Robert Louis Stevenson's classic novel. Check out Kidmapper's blog, youtube, flickr, audioboo, podcasts, twitter and of course, the mashup.

For anyone interested in technical stuff: php periodically talks to the APIs of YouTube, Flickr and AudioBoo to aggregate any geo-tagged content kidmapper creates; the webpage loads up a Gmap, and retrieves a RSS-like feed of all the content, and some Javascript classes add each item to the map, and display the media in their respective place-holders.

I did spend some time trying to make the mashup in Flash, but had so much trouble loading and unloading YouTube movies in AS3 that I nearly wept blood; afer that, building it in JS, which I often find knuckle-tearingly frustrating across browsers, was actually a comparatively joyful experience. Yay!

An Atlas of Cyberspaces
These maps of Cyberspaces - cybermaps - help us visualise and comprehend the new digital landscapes beyond our computer screen, in the wires of the global communications networks and vast online information resources. The cybermaps, like maps of the real-world, help us navigate the new information landscapes, as well being objects of aesthetic interest. They have been created by 'cyber-explorers' of many different disciplines, and from all corners of the world.
