Lab 2a

Neogeography truly gives the map maker freedom to express what he wants without strict guidlines and rules to abide by. I personally enjoy this kind of map because I can construct and unique and detailed map without meeting a series of criteria. My map above is an example of my neogeography.
A problem of neography that I imagine will cause much confusion is the fact that there are so many versions of maps that it could be difficult for a stranger to interpret a unique map. Neography teaches viewers to expect the unexpected because of the lack of rules and guidelines. The map maker has the potential to design his map in a variety of ways, and this might confuse of potential viewer.
