As a neogeographist, and perhaps some would say a pyschogeographist, next year I am going to present three projects that map elements of the physical and virtual world. Each project is linked not just by mapping but also by the fact that they ask indirectly for people to take action about the environment in which they live. Harnessing the power of the web, as well as the commercial image, the drawn picture and some people-power; the fields of ethnography, phenomenology, sustainability and open source are going to be explored.
people-power = theirwork and quotes Emmet’s nice language (can’t remember which post to ref., but it was one like this that he wrote about theirwork.)
neogeographist = I believe I am one of the new geographers who’s using locative technology and this quotes platial.com users (again, lost which post, but eh, they are banding it about.)
Will post more details about this talk later.
