LIQUID GEOGRAPHY Liquid Geography questions and explores contemporary perceptions of geography, territory and landscape, at a point in time when understandings of place and space are being redefined: � How do we map and make sense of the shifting boundaries between the local and the global? � How are our visions and understandings of landscape created and how do they affect the way we then alter the landscape to fit that vision? � How do communication technologies affect our perceptions of territory? � How are our concepts of identity constructed and defined through our relationships to landscape and territory? � In what ways are languages tied to experiences of the landscapes their speakers inhabit and what does this mean for strategies of translation and communication? Liquid Geography is being developed through different themed strands resulting in a series of related projects and experiments. The initial strands will be: Landscape & Identity; Language & Territory (LILT). 4 new writing/artists' book commissions (published on June 14th 2002) using the DIFFUSION eBook format will pilot future experiments in devising creative solutions for knowledge creation and dissemination: Mohini Chandra - Voiceover [A4 | US Letter] + sound file [QT | mp3] Gair Dunlop - Keep Focus [A4 | US Letter] Roshini Kempadoo - Sole Rights[A4 | US Letter] Dr Andy Pratt - It's space Jim, but not as we know [A4 | US Letter] Gair Dunlop (0044) (0)7973 777725 www.gairspace.org.uk ------------------------------------------------- a m b i t : networking media arts in scotland post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] info: send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and write "info ambit" in the message body -------------------------------------------------
