Hello All. I hope you
had a good summer. Here’s September’s contribution to psychogeography related
news. I apologies for it being a bit thin on the ground this month (for want of
a better psychogeography pun). Thanks, Tina
Psychogeography
and Walking
The RIBA Journal recently had an article about psychogeography feature in it: ‘Psychogeography allows us to explore the sensory city’ by Tszwai So. If you haven’t come across it before, the Walk Listen Create website advertises lots of events around the world. Also, see Andy Howlett's Paradise Lost event on 26th September: cinema screening and Q&A.
Cartography
There’s a lovely map from Stockport’s Gigantic Leap Frog Art
Trail - available here
- which took place in July. The International Conference of Cartography and Map
Design is taking place on September 27 and 28 in Turkey: you can find out all
about it here.
Architecture
This article in The
Guardian looks at, would you believe, mafia
architecture (who knew that was a thing). And, finally, this interesting and
lengthy Archinect article (including
some good images form the book), looks at Reyner Banham’s book Los
Angeles: The Architecture of Four Ecologies.
