Knowing urban environments in the digitally mediated age
In this editorial, we present our special issue that explores the relationship between urbanisation and knowledge production, positioning cities as epistemic environments that shape how they are known, sensed, and governed in our digitally mediated age. Challenging the idea that “the city” is an object or a set of processes to be observed and known, we advance an understanding that knowledge of urban environments is always situated and embodied. …
Counter-mapping as praxis: Participation, pedagogy, and creativity
Counter-mapping has become central to a wide array of spatial practices across activist, artistic, and academic spaces. This article reconceptualises counter-mapping for a broad audience interested in understanding what counter-mapping is and what it can achieve in theory and practice. It outlines a relational framework that moves beyond participation, engaging with debates in digital geographies, decolonial mapping, and radical cartographies. Wh…
The digital geographies of tact
This article outlines a research agenda for the spatialities of tact produced by, through and of digital spaces. As a discipline interested in what and who characterises digital space, and in how different relations come to produce space, the article puts forward a proposition for geographers to take tact seriously as an inherently spatial concept useful for theorising the production of space in our digital society. The paper identifies three str…
Locative media communities, social media and cultures of enthusiasm
Locative media art has been a popular topic to study, yet the focus tends to be on examining the artworks themselves, which have challenged us to think about the complex interrelations of space, place and time in novel ways. In this paper we offer a different view of locative media art by examining the community practices that can emerge through the production of this work. By highlighting how the social media platform, WhatsApp, facilitated comm…
Cruising landscape-objects: Inland Waterway Guidebooks and Wayfinding With Them
This article introduces inland waterway guidebooks as cultural objects that deserve further attention from cultural geographers who have begun to shed light on inland waterway cultures in recent years. It contributes to the wider disciplines long-standing interests in representations and representational objects, and more recently the interest in studying representations and their relations to everyday forms of practice. Focusing on a popular ser…
Embracing the plurality of the carto-sphere
This brief commentary responds to Tania Rossetto and Laura Lo Presti’s (2022) thought-provoking article ‘Reimagining the national map’ by offering three points for reflection. Firstly, it highlights the scholarly value of embracing their notion of the carto-sphere as a mode of enquiry into cartography, maps, and mapping practices. Secondly, it draws attention to the theoretical and empirical questions that arise when we embrace the plurality of c…
Spatial media and cycling spaces: A theory of coded attractors
This paper contributes to the literature on the digital geographies of cycling and everyday mobility by further examining the ways that spatial media have become embedded in the riding practices of amateur road cyclists. Road cycling offers a useful case study for examining the complexity of these relations because it is a primarily mobile practice that unfolds across multiple spaces, all of which may be contextually mediated by people, technolog…
Cultures of Enthusiasm: An Ethnographic Study of Amateur Map-Maker Communities
Further attention should be paid to contextualizing the spaces and practices of amateur map-making. Doing so will provide further insight into the ways that maps, mapping epistemologies, and mapper identities emerge in the practices of everyday life. In order to deconstruct the map, and ultimately the power of maps, it is necessary to investigate maps from the bottom up as well as the top down. The motivations of amateur cartographers, the contex…
Questioning "digital ethnography" in an era of ubiquitous computing
This article questions what "digital ethnography" is and how geographers may use it in an era of ubiquitous and pervasive computing. Unlike scholars from cognate disciplines, including the new subfields of digital anthropology and digital sociology, geographers have yet to adopt this term and associated methods on a significant scale in their own ethnographic studies of spatial practices in the digital age. The article asks what has become of an …
