Online community mapping


Sensory body, sensory map

August 28th, 2006 by Dom

Thought I should put up a bit of written work about the project. It is a piece that keeps me inspired to work on the project - a snippet to help focus on ways forward…

This project aims to de-centre governmental legislative practices by creating a highly personalised, visual, kinaesthetic, emotional, sensory and tactile copyright-free bioregional map, via actual bodies walking and talking in real-time space. These bodies are located in the importance of place through the sensory body, and through human interaction. The map aims to make the ‘world into a home’ via re-experiencing the importance of small places through texture, sound, image and emotional experiences through positive localised action. In a sense place is valued and brought into consciousness via theirwork.
