This paper advances a comparative reading of Chen Qiufan’s The Waste Tide (2013) and Wu Mingyi’s The Man with the Compound Eyes (2011) that is informed by the matter of waste. The former a dystopic, cyberpunk tale about the transnational circulation of electronic waste written by a former Google engineer from the Chinese mainland, the latter an eco-fantasy novel by a Taiwanese environmental activist and artist, these two novels “explore,” as Anna Tsing would have it, “the ruins that have become our collective home.” Lingering on waste processing sites and migrant worker communities, floating garbage patches and displaced indigenous populations, these texts transcend national boundaries and geopolitical dichotomies, to unfold instead on the common grounds generated by waste. Defined by it, they foreground in material terms the planetary networks, “webs of life” (Moore 2015), and more-than-human spatiotemporal scales within which life in late capitalism is entangled, envisioning radical possibilities therein.

“Tapajós” narrates the field campaign of two researchers studying forest fragmentation in the Brazilian Amazon. It addresses a contemporary conflict in the region, where an Indigenous people, the Munduruku, are resisting efforts by the Brazilian State to channelize the Tapajós River and exploit its hydropower potential. Development here represents an existential threat to the Munduruku, whose homeland resides in the river valley. It also represents an ecological threat to the global community. Although the rate of deforestation dropped after the turn of the millennium, it has begun to climb again and would no doubt accelerate with development in the Tapajós watershed and the opening of Central Amazonia to colonization and resource extraction. This would push the forest past its tipping point, a magnitude of deforestation capable of compromising rainfall recycling, and thus precipitating the transformation of the Amazonian forest into a patchwork of fireadapted shrubs and grasses. “Tapajós” describes how such an ecological catastrophe would occur. It also argues that the assertion of Indigenous territorial rights is key to the conservation of Amazonian biodiversity. The account unfolds against a background of conflict between Amazonia’s Indigenous peoples and the Brazilian State. In so doing, it brings to life the realities of frontier violence involving both land conflict and the unrestrained behaviors of individuals living outside the institutional constraints of law. Such violence complicates the execution of field research in the region and contributes to its gathering ecological crisis.

The vast majority of work on language and landscape in Geography focuses on the linguistic landscape, which studies the presence or absence of certain languages or dialects on the landscape. This paper goes beyond linguistic landscape to explore language as representation of landscape imaginary. Landscape acts as a powerful symbol, and can work to strengthen territorial identities, solidifying nations as separate entities, intimately connected to the land that they inhabit. This is true of the nation of Galicia, an historic community in the northwest of Spain, where the national landscape and language have come to be inextricably linked in the Galician imagination. In conducting interviews with Galician educators about the nature of their language and its meaning to them personally, an unprovoked link emerged between the language and the landscape, painting the two as essential foundations of Galician identity. Language and landscape are seen as linked foundational symbols in a display of difference between Galicia and Spain. This paper uses themes that emerged from these interviews to elaborate how the Galician language can be seen as a representation of a landscape imaginary.

Endings take multiple forms yet remain under theorised within geography. Informed by Hannah Arendt’s assertion that action has no end, this paper argues for the resonances and elaborations of endings, providing evidence from dance choreography. As an art form, dance has been variously conceived as ephemeral but also transient, thus neither capable of being lost nor destroyed. I explore these ideas through Renail Basail’s re/staging of the choreography Out of the Box, and it’s unexpected ending in March 2020. I ask, what might dance choreography tell scholars of geography and the geohumanities about how to work with such a sense of endings as contingent and open? This paper contributes to this gap in thinking and theorising by outlining four propositions on endings drawn from dance theory and practice. These are: endings and ephemerality, endings as conditional, endings and liveness, and endings as radical. Where endings are open and congruent, two key implications emerge. First, there is need to situate endings within bodies, articulating how they are practiced and performed, whilst always subject to external forces not fully known. Second, if action has no end, there is political possibilities to creative endings.
结局有多种形式,但仍在地理理论范围内。根据汉娜·阿伦特(Hannah Arendt)关于行动没有终点的主张,本文论证了结局的共鸣和阐述,并从舞蹈编舞中提供证据。作为一种艺术形式,舞蹈被各种各样地认为是短暂的,但也是短暂的,因此既不会丢失也不会被摧毁。我通过Renail Basail的编舞《跳出盒子》(Out of the Box)的重新上演来探索这些想法,它在2020年3月出人意料地结束了。我问,舞蹈编舞可能会告诉地理学和地理人文学者如何处理这种偶然和开放的结局感?本文从舞蹈理论和实践中提出了四种关于结局的主张,从而弥补了这一思维和理论上的空白。它们是:结尾和短暂,结尾作为条件,结尾和活力,结尾作为激进。如果结局是开放且一致的,那么就会出现两个关键含义。首先,我们需要在身体内部设置结局,明确它们是如何练习和执行的,同时总是受制于未知的外部力量。第二,如果行动没有终点,那么政治上有可能有创造性的结局。

This paper documents efforts to support a feedback and sharing process using Community Cinema and Participatory Video (PV), in the context of ending a five-year agricultural research for development (AR4D) project. By the final year, some troubling patterns of transactional interaction between researchers and farmer-participants had become established. This multimedia essay documents and describes our imperfect yet hopeful attempts to disrupt relationship patterns at the end of the project. Contributing to debates around collaboration within AR4D projects, we specifically highlight our disruption of: (i) a well-trodden communication path enrolling intermediary “gatekeepers” to contact participating farmers; and (ii) the protocol of paying participants to attend meetings. We reflect on how—at times—the changes we made, while implementing creative, participatory methods, opened up a newly interactive space to support reflection, feedback and sharing processes at the end-phase of the project.

This photographic essay explores how obsolete smokestacks were recast as postindustrial monuments in the urban design-led “reconstruction” of Barcelona since the 1970s. Within the context of the “long goodbye” of deindustrialization, the accompanying text traces how industrial chimneys were re-signified and monumentalized. The images, result of a photographic survey of all remaining smokestacks in the city, frame these industrial obelisks within the transformation of their surrounding landscapes. They constitute a key element of an ongoing investigation melding creative practice and qualitative research, in which I argue that serial photography and participatory curatorial practice can elucidate the ambivalent experiences of deindustrialization.

The Chilean uprising has been defined by detractors and sympathizers as an “estallido social” or social explosion, alluding to its perceived transient character. Assumptions about spontaneity have similarly underpinned diagnoses of its political significance. It is either a problem to be pacified or limited for generating alternatives. This article problematizes this perceived transience, focusing instead on the event’s rhythms, atmospheres and materialities. The article seeks to contribute to projects of collective knowledge production that underline the need to archive, map and theorise events as lived history. Studying the uprising as lived history does not elicit a particular response but rather initiates an investigation into what it makes possible. The figure of the atlas is developed for such an investigation. An atlas curates the emerging archive by composing images and text, not to close off meaning but rather allow for imagination to enter the realm of knowledge.

Interregnum is that moment of crisis in society wherein forces of dislocation and disruption cause, or at least open space for, the potential collapse or reorganization of hegemonic order, the space of the not-yet and, as such, epistemically opaque. It is this image which perhaps best captures those early and unsettling days of the pandemic: moments and spaces which I now attempt to represent herein through selected meditations on everyday life. These meditations—or traces as I see them now, were initially written in the spring and summer of 2020. I resurrect them in a world meaningfully distinct from that of those first weeks, a world all too similar still.

Because contemporary climate change is driven by anthropogenic forcings, it is necessary to factor humanity’s impact into climate models. Given that not all humans are responsible for current climate change, and that many people are already unequally impacted by climate change, it is necessary to develop a more nuanced understanding of the human in climate modeling. Without this nuance, future climate policy, as determined by climate modeling, will potentially replicate historic inequalities that are already present in attributions to and impacts from a rapidly changing climate. This paper begins by briefly outlining how climate models are built, and the ways they are used in climate politics. Then, borrowing methods from climate modelers, this paper turns towards Sylvia Wynter’s work to model the human. The ultimate aim of this paper is to think more expansively and creatively about how genres of humanity can better be represented in climate science and policy with an eye towards more just futures.
