"Millions of Australians will be able to request directions from Warrane (Sydney Cove) to Meanjin (Brisbane), tracing the original custodians of the land along the way, via a new feature on one of the world’s leading navigational apps. In a major collaboration with Indigenous groups, Apple Maps will now include more than 250 dual placenames for cities and towns across the country, with more to be added."

I've been to New Orleans many times in my life but not since Hurricane Katrina. Remedying that by kicking off my next tour with an April Fool's Day lecture at Tulane's Howard-Tilton Memorial Library & an Apr 5th performance w/laptopist Carl Stone at Silver City Grocery in Algiers Point.

Carl opens the evening with a solo set; the collaboration follows.

🗺️ Most maps stop at the front door — but that’s exactly where things start to get interesting.

In my latest article, I make the case for private maps and how FORMATION helps organizations map the spaces that matter most: buildings, events, industrial sites.

Whether you’re trying to improve visitor experience, streamline operations, or boost security — a map that you control makes all the difference.

Thanks to finding a couple of geocaches here in Istanbul, my geocaching "2D convex hull" (the smallest possible convex polygon that covers an area), which I wrote some code to draw last year, just expanded a little further to the East. 🎉

I've got a lot of the world left still to encircle, but I'm slowly extending my reach...
