A song about mapping the internet and how it links to our physical world, based on research by Prof Mark Graham at the University of Oxford. This is a song about mapping the internet. The internet reflects our physical world, but much of what we see is controlled by internet companies, and isn't always accurate.

This song was written by Jonny Berliner in collaboration with Prof. Mark Graham who works at the Oxford Internet Institute at the University of Oxford as part of the Musical Abstracts project as part of the Curiosity Carnival.
