Final Project Proposal

For my final project I would like to create a map that depicts the history of Jazz music in the U.S and the different styles that arise throughout its history. I would like to start with a little bit of Ragtime and Blues, since these are the predecessors of Jazz then transition to Jazz. I will use flash to create my map and it will include a movable timeline that the user can control popups that give background on the different genres of Jazz that arise throughout time. I will show where the genre first appears and show how Jazz traveled throughout the U.S starting in New Orleans. I will also give information on some key players in Jazz in the different genres and hopefully be able to give a sample of their music, possibly using buttons? http://www.directionsmag.com/images/newsletter/2005/03_23/Jazz_Map1_lg.jpg
