Here's lots of interesting people, groups, and collections to look at. Most of them are related to psychogeography. So to start with, for what it's worth: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychogeography
PIPS is a collective in Providence, RI. They do all sorts of projects but most notably put on the Provflux festival every year: http://www.pipsworks.com/
Glowlab is the NYC based, gallery and technology oriented counterpart to pips. They host the Conflux festival. http://confluxfestival.org/conflux2008/
The Center for Land Use Interpretation investigates the way land is used. They produce tours, maps, and presentations and were included in the Suburbia exhibit a while back at the Walker. http://www.clui.org/
Fritz Haeg does some interesting and high profile work with the phenomenon of front lawns ("Edible Estates" project) as well as parades and workshops and other things. He lives in LA.

Frank, aka Kickball Jesus, is this crazy/pretty awesome dude I know through pips. He worked for a university map collection for a few years and sent out an extensive list of all his mapping related bookmarks. If you'd like me to forward you the document, let me know. In the meantime his blog is http://pimpsworks.blogspot.com/
A map blog I can across just recently: http://laneandsorrow.com/maps/
I believe there was some talk at the first meeting about the emotion/heart rate maps. They were done by Christian Nold. http://www.softhook.com/
so that should keep ya busy.
