Woven Stories, Layered Landscapes
Parks Victoria have produced a video on Aboriginal Cultural knowledge, a great introduction to the notion that people, practices and a landscape are tightly related.
People say that after they have been in an area for a while, they start to become a reflection of that environment. Sometimes, the environment starts to reflect the people. This connection between people and country is what powers the life essence and intrinsic memory imprinted in that place. It is this absorbed energy that continues to draw people there, for the same reasons, for countless generations.
Geoplaced Knowledge
This is a research notebook exploring the gaps between cultural geography, natural environments and ubiquitous computing.
It documents my progress undertaking a cross-disciplinary PhD, in Geospatial Science and Design at RMIT University, Melbourne.
I'm working with Parks Victoria, a government body charged with managing natural environments in the state of Victoria, Australia. My work is being conducted under the Design Research Institute's Affective Atlas project, whose goal is to better facilitating the creation and dissemination of tacit knowledge about national parks.
