Jardiner les sons – Écouter et faire sonner les jardins

Dans mes premières études, deux apprentissages ont cohabité, se sont frotté, ont questionné le paysage par la main, par le pied et par l’oreille.

Cagliari in layers

Cagliari, a port, and built on a raised plateau, with lots of history, attractive to tourists, but not (yet?) overrun by them, is very well suited for exploration.

The anatomy of a Queenslander – a story of connections

The author reflects on the Queenslander house as a cultural and ecological symbol, connecting personal history with broader themes of urban development and environmental sustainability. Their research emphasizes the loss of iconic architecture to urban sprawl and advocates for integrating traditional design into modern climate-resilient communities, drawing from decades of environmental work.

GPS, geo-poetic system

Geo-poetic system was a term coined by Lucy Frears during locative media art research (published 2017). The basis of geopoetics, a theory and practice developed by Scottish philosopher and poet Kenneth White, is to connect humans to the lines of the earth (White cited in McManus 2007: 183), or ‘what’s out there’ (Ingold 1993; 154; White 2005: 200; White 2006: 9). The contact White describes is often between the human mind and the earth, what he calls ‘landscape-mindscape’ (Legendre 2011: 121). Because of the embodied nature of locative media experiences using a smartphone in landscape for these walking art experiences using gps technologies Frears expanded this notion to being ‘landscape-mindscape-bodyscape’ (2017).
