General interests as at 23.10.12

I would like to look at how ideas of tangible and intangible histories and cultural 'matierals' can be considered, interrogated, and reimagined, through strategies other than typical museum and/or collection-related, authorative positions. I'm particularly interested in ideas of interactivity and mobility.

... elaboration as keyword/terms

  • intangible / tangible
  • material / immaterial
  • public space
  • 'domains'
  • culture / history / heritage

As a starting point I've done some pencil drawings. They are based on Walking Tours of German cities, from the Lonely Planet guide book series. Here are Weimar, Erfurt and Dresden. I'm interested in the idea of directing, and being directed through space.
