    Description

    Why is Paris a hub for fine arts and Vienna for classical music? The simple answer: migration. In this episode we chat with Phillip Koch, whose research uses Wikipedia data of famous people from the last 1000 years to demonstrate how these cities came to be. Do you want to know more about Philipp's research? The paper can be found here. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Welcome to the geography of everything, the podcast where we try to figure out the geography of, well, everything.Stephen Hawking spent his life trying to come up with one equation that could describe everything in the universe. But geography, well, doesn’t really work like that. Because, in its simplest form, geography advocates for the connectivity of everything. It believes that there are a million different versions, realities, and perspectives on any phenomenon, depending on how you look at it, and from where. And more than anything, geography believes that nothing exists in a vacuum, but instead, that our world is comprised of countless chain reactions, interactions, and connections that weave together the fabric of our world. From sea turtle migration to technological innovation, pandemics to veganism, geography is everywhere, and the connections are limitless. Each episode of this podcast will cover a different phenomenon from big to small, silly to scary, humanities to biology, with the hope of discovering the geographies of it all.Follow us on Twitter @geoofeverything and LinkedIn and feel free to contact us for any suggestions or questions via thegeographyofeverything@gmail.com.This podcast is recorded at and made possible by Utrecht University.
