i like this sort of question. it's like the travelling salesman. my answer
is Berlin. but it's already been done. innumerable times. is data a new
mythology of place - this sort of augmentation you're talking about? what is
literacy  - or the novel's relationship to place? like say gregor von
rezzori's reading of Berlin. more questions for the academicised empyrean
travelling salesman.
