My research-creation concerns the interference of 'top-down' and 'bottom-up' mapping practices and the entangled viscera of urban bodies as they are rendered differentially intelligible. Specifically, I am interested in the ways Google Maps is reshaping mental maps through its routing of our everyday navigations. What is the significance of Google increasingly directing pedestrian spatial practices and thus the production of urban space? Why is the shift to using ubiquitous locative platforms—in addition to and even instead of mental maps—so backgrounded? And, to what extent does this occlusion assert a hegemony of 'top-down' productions of geographic knowledge? My project will apply a diffractive methodology to study how the effects of using mental maps and Google Maps—those effects being different configurations of "the city"—overlap, interfere, and combine with one another in and through everyday navigations. In an effort to suggest alternative ways of performing the city, I will also think through the design of a digital navigational application for destination-disoriented discovery of Vancouver.







In studying how the city comes to matter through everyday spatial practices, I want to foreground tensions between the directness of experience and the broader underlying politics that structure landscapes of encounter. I turn to the "urban everyday" as a diffractive apparatus for investigating the infra/structural as it articulates in mundane events, encounters, and arts of inhabitation. Taking neither "urban" nor "everyday" for granted, I seek instead to think them through one another towards an understanding of their organization of a scale analytic. The list that follows will ground me in different approaches to urban theory, practice, and praxis. Sublist 1.1 concerns urban theories and how they configure this thing we call the city. My intention is for these readings to ground my exploration of cities, urban infrastructure, and wayfinding within the disciplinary context of Geography. Sublist 1.2 attends to the specificities of place in research and what it means to produce situated urban knowledges. Finally, Sublist 1.3 centers urban navigations, unruly practices of inhabitation, and the right to the (posthuman) city.

  • What of the structural can be seen in the everyday? How do I theorize the urban everyday, and what does it offer in terms of parsing phenomena?

  • What does it mean to generate situated knowledges of (and from within and as part of) the city? Refiguring David Hugill's call for geographers to examine the "'urban' implications of colonial practice" (2017, 2), what are the colonial implications of my urban practices as a settler in Vancouver?

  • If theory is emplaced, to what extent are theories locally adaptable elsewhere? In other words, what of "the local" transcends the particularity of place? Or, what can context give us and what is generalizable, abstractable? What's unifying and what's divergent about urban praxis from place to place?

  • Does thinking with and through spatial practices of urban inhabitation open up particular ways of thinking cities? How do everyday navigations shape infra/structural relations, city imaginaries, and the production of urban space?

  • How might we hold together different—incommensurable, even—framings of the city? Which concepts, theories, practices, methodologies, and ethics might aid in this endeavor?

This list contents with digitality as it increasingly orients urban everyday spatial practices. There exists a plethora of literature on navigating the city, some written by geographers but much of it generated outside the discipline. I intentionally begin by grounding myself in digital geographies with Sublist 2.1 because I believe digital geographies offers a strong framework from which to study navigational technologies and locative media. Sublist 2.2 explores digital (navigation) platforms and their role in configuring the city. Sublist 2.3 concerns locative media and the Google Maps Platform in particular. While this list may seem highly curated to my project, I found focusing my readings around the specific platform and context of my interest the best way to hone an otherwise massive amount of literature.

Questions
  • How might digital geographies ground my research of how the city comes to differentially matter through everyday navigations which, more and more, are directed by Google Maps?

  • How do physical and digital configurations of "the city" become entangled through pedestrian use of Google Maps? To what extent are navigational web maps mediating users' experience of the city? How might process philosophy's premise of immediation (which bears ontoepistemological similarities to agential realism) trouble dichotomies of the structural and experiential, direct and distributed? What conceptions of scale in relation to bodies and sensory apparatuses are complicated by a "politics of immediation" (Manning 2020)?

  • Why has Google Maps become so widely used? For whom is Google Maps useful and for whom is the using of Google Maps valuable? What is the commodity at the heart of Google Maps? In expanding its products through Google Earth Outreach Tools, of which the Google Maps Platform is but a part, what new audiences does Google desire to attract and why?

  • How are different disciplines and subdisciplines approaching ubiquitous "locative media", and the Google Maps Platform in particular? What kinds of studies are being conducted and how are they structured? What questions are being asked and to what ends? Should I do a study, what questions might I ask and why?

  • What are the experiential and structural consequences of using Google Maps for navigating the city? How are these formulated across fields of study and what is foregrounded/backgrounded in the process? Are the stakes the same for everyone?

This list will ground me in critical cartographic thought and practice, as well as delve into more speculative projects that move beyond maps as representational apparatuses (however emancipatory/participatory, artistic, and counter-hegemonic) towards mapping as a mode of immanent, immersive inquiry. Bounding and defining this list has been quite challenging. In the end, I decided it was more important this list center mapping/cartography than philosophies of practice/process. Therefore, this list is composed of two subsections only. Sublist 3.1 contends with critical cartography and counter-cartography in theory and praxis. In many ways, this marks a return to what first got me interested in human geography. Sublist 3.2 then turns to mapping as a mode of inquiry itself, exploring the contingent production of spatial data and what non-representational (or perhaps always already more-than representational) mappings might look like.

Questions (Still working on these) 

  • How might we render situated spatial practices without flattening, georeferencing, and vectorizing experiential knowledge? If mapping itself is taken to be a mode of immanent inquiry (Knight 2021), how might theorizations developed through spatial practice be recorded while centering the generativity of cartographic process? How might cartographies include what haunts them yet exceeds representation? 

  • How are empirics made legible as data by the apparatuses that produce them? How are technoscientific and affective orientations to ‘what counts as data’ co-constitutive of an empirical account of the city? I remain particularly invested in how the apparatuses through which differential embodiment is constituted effect different possibilities for knowing.

  • How might one cite interlocutors more than human while accounting for the apparatuses whereby human and nonhuman are differentially articulated? How might one cite empirical formations while remaining responsive to the entangled state of their existence? What might it mean to cultivate an acknowledgement practice for hauntings matters inherit as they undergo physical-conceptual refigurings?

  • How are certain scales/scale analytics embedded in web map infrastructure? What kinds of movement to web maps prioritize/assume? How might critical cartography differ between physical maps and web maps?

not finished - just some unsorted things

Necessary to the above lists' composition was the exclusion of lists dedicated to process philosophy, posthumanist performativity, (critiques of) feminist new materialisms, postqualitative inquiry, crip theory, and an extended engagement with research-creation. What I've done is twofold: First, I've begun an open-ended list of the above topics which I'll steadily add to as readings come to my attention. Because these topics, and thinking through practice and posthumanisms/posthumanist performativity in particular, are relevant to my actual project, I will at some point need to read more on them. That moment is just not comps. Second, I include this Haunting list to make space for the ever growing collection of theories, practices, books, and people (and I should expand this to include the nonhuman as well as phenomena, I guess) "I" am moved by and which I continue to think with and through my own research-creation. Intercessors for the outside, these "Friends" (see Manning and Massumi 2014) accompany me without needing to show up explicitly in my exam responses.
