| Indhold: |
Maps are powerful and evocative ways of representing and communicating information about complex topics or areas. Over the course of history maps have been associated with the establishment of claims to authority, ownership and influence, be it by nation states, tribes, indigenous groups, capitalist entities or scientific scholars. Technological advancements have rendered detailed map-making increasingly accessible through GPS enabled devices and satellite imaging systems such as Google Earth, and creative and interactive forms of mapmaking are becoming increasingly applied components in research projects in both private and academic settings.
This course will provide a theoretical and conceptual overview of mapping along with methodological and analytical tools for conducting visual ethnographic mapping in a wide variety of settings. The course will introduce students to cardinal texts (both classical and contemporary) on mapping, and introduce a range of mapping tools and examples of mappings, so as to render the students capable of analysing mappings, designing mapping components for their research projects and engage in particpatory mapping projects.
The exam is based on a portfolio consisting of a concrete mapping accompanied by a reflexive methodological and analytical essay which frames the particular mapping. The course has a strong collaborative foundation and students will collaborate in groups and are expected to do a collective presentation during the course in addition to the presentation of their visual mapping in conjunction with their examination. The course will benefit from presentations by a number of professionals engaged in visual mapping.
Students are expected to bring along a photographic camera (SLR, compact or smartphone with camera) and if possible a GPS enabled device (ex. smartphone or actual GPS receiver).
