Speculative designs
A sense of vibrancy infuses accounts of geographical concepts, yet the prosaic endeavour of making them remains unexamined. Engaging Deleuze and Guattari, who regard concepts as composed of mutable matter with the ability to bring unexpected variations, this paper discusses attempts to deploy concepts less as semantic units belonging to a rarefied realm of theory than multimodal processes that facilitate experimentation with differently embodied …
Living together and apart
Based on an ethnography with children and families in a segregated neighbourhood of Santiago, Chile, this article explores how care is practiced amid urban violence and inequality. Through a combination of drawing and walking methods, it examines how children and parents negotiate risk, absence, and structural neglect in their efforts to sustain relational life. In dialogue with Science and Technology Studies, it shows how care emerges through fr…
Noticing, Caring, and Hauntings
This article explores environmental care practices and individuals' relationships with their surroundings in Chile, emphasizing how the unequal burden of care, particularly among women, shapes responses to the climate crisis. Drawing on Science and Technology Studies and Posthumanist thinking, we advocate for cultivating the art of noticing – developing affective and ethical attunements with the environment that inspire novel care practices. Howe…
Hostile prototypes
Turning to the concept of plasticity in the philosophy of Catherine Malabou, this article traces an approach to urban change as a volatile movement of giving, receiving and exploding form. It diverges from lines of thinking within cultural geography that affirm lively processes and relations, instead calling attention to the finite and fragile morphologies of cities and their exposure to the threat of destruction. The article examines a planning …
Politics of dissensus in geographies of architecture
This paper evokes the writings of Jacques Rancière to propose a concept of politics for geographies of architecture that is attentive to the polemical conditions under which more equal ways of composing built environments emerge. Discussing Ed Roberts Campus, a building designed and operated by the disability community in Berkeley, California, it argues for a politics of architecture that does not entail conflicts over power or identity, but revo…

Pedagogical assemblages
This article engages with the everyday geographies of mobile pedagogy by exploring Children's Traffic City, a model traffic area for 5- to 10-year-olds that is operated by the Youth Department of Helsinki, Finland. Drawing from the work of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, the article elaborates the notion of pedagogical assemblage to unsettle a series of problematic assumptions about children's mobility in present Euro-American settings, among …
Children, Urban Care, and Everyday Pavements
This paper takes a mundane piece of urban infrastructure, the pavement, as a starting point, approaching it through the experiences of 7-12-year-old children who journey between home and school in Helsinki, Finland. In doing so, the paper argues that the children and their travel companions are employing pavements to cultivate the caring potential of their city, whether this entails patting dogs, picking up empty bottles, or checking the safety o…
Geographies of Experiment/Experimental Geographies
Geographers have increasingly employed the notion of experiment to describe the explorative styles of researching and thinking that they have elaborated in response to the complexities that characterise the present world. This article discusses the shifting uses of the notion in recent contributions, tracing out the ethical, methodological and theoretical sensibilities that it brings into geography. The article falls into two parts, the first rev…
Experiments with moving children and digital cameras
Discussing an ethnography engaging 7–12-year-olds in digital filming and photography during school journeys in Helsinki, Finland, this article argues for an experimental attitude to participatory visual research with children. Such an attitude is inspired by science and technology studies, and seeks to open space for more situated styles of children's expression and participation by stressing the performative aspects of visual methods and media. …
Rhythmanalytical sketches
This article explores the multiple and qualitatively different temporalities of children's everyday agencies by drawing from two ethnographic studies on the school journeys of 5–7 year-olds in Copenhagen, Denmark, and 7–12 year-olds in Helsinki, Finland. Employing Henri Lefebvre's writings on rhythmanalysis, the article describes the shifting environmental, social, and technological rhythms – including urban traffic, weather changes and the affec…
Transitional geographies
Geographers of childhood have variously accounted for the experiences of mobile children. Less has been said about the practices of becoming mobile, including the acquisition of skills, engagement with travel technologies and the shifting child–parent relations implicated in the process. This article explores the making of mobile children through ethnographic research with 7–12-year-olds practising the journey between home and school in Helsinki,…
Enacting Traffic Spaces
Children's mobility in Euro-American settings is increasingly circumscribed by adult surveillance and escorting, reflecting broader cultural constructions of safety and risk, autonomy, and protection. This article explores the spatial limits and possibilities of childhood in relation to everyday traffic. It describes a series of pedagogical interventions in a traffic park, where young children are prepared for the events of daily traffic by stagi…
