A beginning | The making of territory

“Even though the map is not the territory, to make maps is to organize oneself, to generate new connections and to be able to transform the material and immaterial conditions in which we find ourselves immersed. It isn’t the territory but it definitely produces territory.”

Car_Tac (Cartograficas Tacticas), 2006. Quoted in Mendez de Andes et al. pg. 157.

 

Through this blog I anticipate to generate a body of research that interrogates the making and marking of territory, including its registration, rules, management, control and resilience. This is intended to be in itself a mapping of the territory, and research tangents that facilitate and comprise my practice.
