As I understand it deep mapping is about generating 'joined up thinking' and connectivities in ways 'trans-disciplinarity' usually fails to do because its thinking is still bound too much to academic disciplinary (and so ultimately exclusive) presuppositions - that's where we believe the arts can help.Iain Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722377302510862494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839922450198375320.post-55717808675201038042011-11-15T21:33:58.060-06:002011-11-15T21:33:58.060-06:00Thanks Iain, this is interesting to me thanks. A ...Thanks Iain, this is interesting to me thanks. A lot of the work you are pointing to is new to me. I am an ecologists primarily, and a writer of sorts I suppose so there are certain tools in my belt that I tend to use. But it does prompt me to think a bit more deeply about the sorts of collaborations that are possible. As it happens were are currently hosting some work on art and environment in relation to regional conservation efforts. This is motivated primarily so that we can think about programs to match the relatively larger efforts that we have been involved with in the natural and social sciences. I'll write a little about these efforts in the coming weeks.DublinSoilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746847572672641393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839922450198375320.post-80137350226975092452011-11-14T17:12:47.725-06:002011-11-14T17:12:47.725-06:00Obviously Tim Robinson’s work is a good point of r...Obviously Tim Robinson’s work is a good point of reference for this kind of work, particularly if the emphasis is primarily on the cartographic/historical dimensions of place, but I think there's a body of both practice and pedagogy that's developing in all kinds of productive ways that might be of interest with you. Do you know Brian Katen, Associate Professor and Chair of the Landscape Architecture Program in the School of Architecture + Design at Virginia Tech? I sat in on one of his classes last year when I was there for the Mapping Spectral Traces workshop -http://www.research.spia.vt.edu/events/spectral-traces/ - and, from conversations we had afterwards, I think he’s developing interesting pedagogic models around this area of work. (His research explores the everyday landscape, community identity and conceptions of place, and the complex relationship between the landscape, its archives, and memory). You might also be interested in our Mapping Spectral Traces Network, since the work of people like your fellow countryman Antony Lyons, the Australian landscape designer Prof Gini Lee and Prof Christine Baeumler at the University of Minnesota are possibly relevant to your interests?Iain Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722377302510862494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839922450198375320.post-16491394319617311122011-11-14T06:36:27.729-06:002011-11-14T06:36:27.729-06:00Well, we use it primarily along with our urban map...Well, we use it primarily along with our urban mapping projects, e.g. see http://10thingswrongwithenvironmentalthought.blogspot.com/2011/09/sneek-peak-at-deep-map-lincoln-park.html and http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2010-05-23/features/ct-sun-0523-sidewalks-depaul-20100523_1_trees-new-ecology-sidewalks<br /><br />My main inspiration for this sort of work comes from Tim Robinson: http://www.foldinglandscapes.com/ who combines a literary and the cartographic...
