Bridging Digital Geographies and Socially Smart Villages
This article critically explores the intersection of digital geographies, community building, tourism development, and bottom-up processes that shape resilient rural futures.

Digital representations of rural places frequently reinforce stereotypes, leaving…
Geomedia Perspectives for Multiple Futures in Tourism Development
This article draws on five participatory action research studies to address how geomedia theory can induce multiple imaginations of the future. Critical future research advocates that societies need to collectively create visions of multiple futures, transcending the single rational (neoliberal) future path. The studies were conducted in collaboration with rural communities and local tourism entrepreneurs who were exploring geomedia technologies …

In a mediatized society, placemaking practices cannot be understood without simultaneously understanding dif…

However, research has yet to empirically examine how, and for whom, geomedia technologies are made relevant, as well as the role of these technologies in wide…
