Cultural Geography I: Mediums

This first of three cultural geographies progress reports explores the place of creative practices in the production, consumption and circulation of cultural geographies in recent years. In the midst of the expansion of geographers using creative research methods, or collaborating with practitioners, I consider the calls for critical accounts of these forms of making geographical knowledge. I argue that the idea of ‘medium’ has emerged as an important frame for such accountings. Discussion explores firstly, the importance of the ‘post-medium’ transdisciplinary field, and secondly, the persistence of medium in shaping relations between cultural geography and creative practices.
