Brendan Conway has created a new story map which explores the geographical or psychogeographical background to a piece of music.

The classic song by David Bowie was first released on the classic album 'Hunky Dory' on 17th Dec 1971

"I've just published a new story map about 'Life On Mars?', to coincide with the first release of the song on 'Hunky Dory' 50 years ago next week. I have no recollection of that event, but remember first hearing 'Life On Mars?' when it was released as a single in 1973 and never tire of listening to it.
The story map follows a similar psychogeographical path to 'Sgt. Pepper's Places'."
The Sgt Pepper's Places was an earlier StoryMap that Brendan created and shared and can be found on this blog as well.
StoryMaps are a tool which we are using for the D3 ERASMUS project.
