We ask how the established body of work in the geohumanities, including literary geography and related fields, might incorporate the infrastructural turn that has been emerging in geography and anthropology. Studying literary and cultural imaginings of infrastructure, we suggest, extends considerations of spatiality by emphasizing how spatial connections and disconnections are constructed through material and technological means. In seeking to demonstrate the potential of attending to the imagination of infrastructure, we focus our analysis on one specific case: the infrastructure of gullies in Kingston, Jamaica. Kingston’s gullies—an extensive system of open drains meant to quickly channel rainwater to the city’s harbor—occupy an important if largely unexamined space in the Jamaican capital’s urban imaginary. In this article, we read the gully not just as a specific spatial imaginary, but as a form of infrastructure. How are Kingston’s gullies imagined in Jamaican popular music, literature, and visual culture? How do these forms of cultural production convey and evoke infrastructure’s aesthetic and affective dimensions? How do writers, musicians, and filmmakers engage with infrastructure both to assess urban dis/connections, and to reimagine these relations otherwise? We address these questions across a range of cultural texts to illustrate how a direct engagement with infrastructure might extend work on spatiality by highlighting the cultural politics of materiality and technology.","PeriodicalId":53217,"journal":{"name":"Geohumanities","volume":"1 1","pages":"17 - 32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79018901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Poetry writing forms part of an exploratory investigation into ways of engaging a geography class with the study of a place. The students glean their contextual understanding from research and a day’s multisensory fieldwork. Poetry writing through its careful choice of words supports the students to represent the individual ways in which they connect with a place’s past, present, and in some instances consider its future. The activity encourages the students to express their affective and cognitive place understanding. The students use different modes to support the representation of their poems. The process of creatively representing their poems reinforces the students’ ability to communicate their unique place messages. Poetry writing allows the students to engage with a place and informs their conceptual understanding of its diverse elements.","PeriodicalId":53217,"journal":{"name":"Geohumanities","volume":"37 1","pages":"265 - 276"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74678137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper looks at multiple, specific, and contradictory ways in which the materiality of groundwater is understood and intervened in. Using the case of the ongoing Chennai Metro Rail construction project, and its disciplinary cultures of representation, I bring attention to the ground and its waters as a composite system in both balance and unrest, and an active, vital component of the city. Through unpacking established concepts of strata, porosity, and pressure, I will cast groundwater not as an objective fact, always pictured by, and relative to, a human subject, but as an actual being which humans (and others beyond) perceive, relate to, and come into contact with. I close by drawing from this account a possible further set of concepts which groundwater generates-dynamic states which are common to human and material life-suggesting that a relational theory of groundwater materiality, based on leaking as opposed to bordering, might better respond to the ways in which groundwater troubles knowledge.</p>","PeriodicalId":53217,"journal":{"name":"Geohumanities","volume":"7 1","pages":"89-112"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/a4/39/RGEO_7_1925574.PMC8372292.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39335601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Taking an ecological approach, we investigate interconnected flows of things, people, and perspectives in concrete situations in the city of Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

In light of transformative work in critical cartography and recent turns to narrative cartography, digital mapping has arguably come to offer an opportunity for radical and democratized visualizations. However, the historical and contemporary anti-Blackness of mapping urges caution. Moreover, prominent critical cartographic urges to eschew normativity risk advancing diminished and distorted representations of historically Black communities. In turn, this article questions the extent to which visually countering the ongoing anti-Black work of dominant maps (e.g. erasure of Black communities) might avoid altogether appropriating the medium. Presented are animations created with audio clips from oral histories collected in rural Southern (US) communities. Created in collaboration with a professional animator, these brief animated clips do the work of countering historic erasure without reinforcing the hegemonic legibility of dominant cartographic productions.","PeriodicalId":53217,"journal":{"name":"Geohumanities","volume":"3 1","pages":"475 - 493"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90628334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
