* Noun (plural MAPS): To discover something and create a visual representation of it. Everybody needs a map, a way to see the world. We need maps to understand the physical world we live in. We look to maps to understand the spiritual world, as in astrology, for example. We need maps to understand each other in this constant exploration. An exploration of both the extent of the galaxy and the depths of our own inner-space. Joao Machado 2006 *Webster dictionary / pocket edition 2006.
