Using Walking Approaches and Site-Specific Performance to Reveal Layers of Feeling Attached to Place
This paper aims to meet the desire for dynamic and multi-dimensional aspects of studying feelings attached to places. Starting with a contemporary example of a place in crisis and whose affective history seems linked to the 1984–85 UK miners’ strike, this paper argues for methodologies that avoid drawing straight lines from feelings attached to the past into the present-day. Rather than following dominant emotions, this work pursues Kathleen Stew…
Participatory collaborations between geographers and performance artists
This article explores how collaborations between geographers and performance artists can offer new ways for present‐day communities to engage with the histories and legacies of postwar urban planning. Focusing on the development of site‐responsive performances in Newport (Wales) codesigned by geographer Aled Singleton, Tin Shed Theatre Co and artist TEMMAH , the paper examines how artistic interventions can mediate contested planning documents, o…
Urban research in film using walking tours and psychogeographic approaches
This article investigates urban change, making films from research approaches which use ethnographic walking interviews, public walking tours and psychogeographic techniques. The case study focuses on Newport, South Wales, UK. Using this example, I explore the longer-term impacts of the (mostly) state-led reconfiguration of British towns and cities from the late-1950s to the mid-1970s. Contemporary film for this period sets the context and links …

South Wales offers a particularly interesting perspective here, as many moves were within twenty miles and seemed to be driven by high levels of state investment in industry, housing and road infrastructure. This essay aims to examine the long-term impact…
