Emmanuelle Waeckerlé

Emmanuelle Waeckerlé is a (French) London-based artist, experimental vocalist, free improviser and curator whose practice has evolved from the single discipline of fine art photography into multiple, interconnected work zones: conceptual writing, performance, new musical composition and artist-publishing.
Her works emerge between poetic scores (that also exist as artist publications) and occasions for their activation (installations, performances).
Her music and scores are distributed by Edition Wandelweiser. Some of her artists publications are in collections including V&A, the Poetry Library at Southbank Centre, The Bibliotheque Nationale de Paris, Centre Des Livres d’Artistes. Emmanuelle is a reader in fine art and relational practices at University for the Creative Art in Farnham.

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).
