Concept Map

With my concept map I intended to present a broad understanding of the events of Woodstock of '69. My group in class chose to do Woodstock as a sample map, but I enjoyed the idea so much I decided to expand it. It would have been impossible to list all the artists that attended the concert, so I my favorite 5. I was looking to achieve a general description of what the Woodstock experience was like. I began by just making a list of everything that came to mind when I though of Woodstock. It was full of people (hippies) with similar beliefs (peace, freedom, revolution) and used similar transportation to arrive (buses). Without stereotyping all those who attended the event, most experimented with drugs and sex, and was sort of a jump off point for my map. Using that information is how I started to map out the concepts and activities.

Mapping out the concepts of Woodstock was definitely more fun than work. I realized how it was all connected and linked to one another. With more space I certainly could have expanded much more with the concepts, activities and ideas that were Woodstock '69.
