Article: Embodied cartographies of the unscene: A feminist approach to (geo)visualising film and television production
Abstract
As cinema scholars continue turning to cartography and GIS to uncover new dimensions of an old media, they risk repeating the static and top-down approach to maps castigated by feminist and poststructural geographers since the 1990s. Here, I propose that cinematic cartographers strive to bring contradictory positionalities to bear on the cinematic map, a cyborg epistemology that privileges neither the view from above or the view from below. To demonstrate this approach, I detail my own methodology and techniques using GPS tracking and ESRI Story Maps to explore the daily activities of a film location scout in Los Angeles, California.
