The Leper Hospital/Morn Hill, Winchester : Anthropomorphic Geography/Landscape on Photographic Ground
A few feet below the ground a thick line of rock would mark us off from all that had gone before. Condensed into that six-inch sooty layer would be our cities, vehicles, roads, bridges, weapons. Also, all sorts of chemical compounds not found in the previous geological record.
Ian McEwan : The Children Act, 2014.
Against SPACE : Place-Movement-Knowledge
"I wish to argue, in this chapter against the notion of space. Of all the terms we use to describe the world we inhabit, it is the most abstract, the most empty, the most detached from the realities of life and experience."

Russell Moreton.
Visual artist working
with light sensitive materials and simple homemade cameras. I use
these simple working methods to explore themes around the sense of
place. Working with time-based media that is predominately analogue,
my practice looks into the visual poetics of spaces formed through
the photographic process. The use of drawings, architectural plans
and collage techniques are used as a supplementary layer in my work
to bring together visual and textual references and interests.

Open Laboratory : Photographic Work : Borderlands
Art as Spatial Practice.
Space folds : Containing "Spatialities around historicality and sociality"
"All that is solid melts into air"
Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels,
(Poetic observation concerning the constant revolutionizing of social conditions)
Perceptions now gathering at the end of the millennium. Spatiality, Robert T. Tally Jr. 2013
Anthrocene, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Skeleton Tree.
Oxford Dictionary of Geography: spatiality
Anselm Kiefer :
In the Annenberg Courtyard
Velimir Khlebnikov: Fates of Nations: The New Theory of War
Anselm Kiefer often dedicates his works to intriguing figures of the past, be they poets or philosophers. This piece is one of a number of works emerging from Kiefer’s ongoing exploration of the Russian Futurist avant-garde writer, theorist and absurdist Velimir Khlebnikov (1885-1922).
After years of study, Khlebnikov concluded that a major sea battle took place every 317 years, or multiples thereof. Kiefer celebrates this heroic and ludicrous activity with a work that is both monument and anti-monument. Measuring almost 17 metres in total and consisting of two large glass vitrines, Kiefer creates a transparent, reflective sea-scape in three dimensions that calls to mind the Romantic sublime of painters from JMW Turner to Caspar David Friedrich. Kiefer uses the frames of the vitrines to stage a mysterious drama, in which viewers, seeing each other and their own reflections, become participants.
The effect that space has on actions, interactions, entities, concepts, and theories. Physical spatiality can also be metaphorical. It is used to show social power—thrones are higher than the seats of commoners, and ‘high tables’ for university teachers in most Oxbridge colleges physically elevate the teachers over the taught. People use proximity to show how intimate they want to be with others (See personal space), or orientation; we may face someone or turn away from them. Institutions and governments have used large architectural spaces to invoke awe, while restaurateurs may create ‘cosiness’ in small spaces.

ANTHROPOLOGY
OF
LANDSCAPE
Christoper Tilley, Kate Cameron-Daum
Materiality
From our perspective in this book representations of landscape, textual or pictorial, are of secondary significance and we should treat them as such; they are selective and partial, and often highly ideological, ways of seeing and knowing.
It forms a material medium in which we dwell and move and think.
Redirecting the study of landscape from representation to the materially grounded messiness of everyday life and the minutiae of material practices that constitute it.
Landscapes are contested, untidy and messy, tensioned, always in the making. Our landscapes of modernity are frequently on the move and peopled by diasporas and migrants of identity, people making homes in new places.
Field Observations
Spatial relations within the landscape are complex.
The manner in which persons and their bodies cannot be understood apart from the landscapes of which they are a part, reciprocally involved in forms of movement, action, awareness and social memory.

Terri Griffith, Margaret A. Neale
Acquisition/Sharing of Implicit and Explicit Information
Organisations increasingly rely on teams to do much of the work traditionally accomplished by individuals.
Successful groups are those who are able to create synergies in the form of information aggregation and innovation that is beyond the ability of any single member.
Nascent Knowledge
Information Diversity
Task Conflict
The knowledge and perspectives of group members from the same social networks may be more redundant than diversified. However a total diversity among work group members is not desirable; some 'redundancy' (agreement in perspective) among group members is necessary to ensure enough common ground to facilitate successful group interaction.
Transactive Memory : Knowing and Accessing What We Know
For teams to have synergy they must be able to access their information, it is important to know who does what.

Transactive Memory : A Contemporary Analysis of the Group Mind
Daniel M. Wegner
The study of transactive memory is concerned with the prediction of group (and individual) behaviour through an understanding of the manner in which groups process and structure information.
Individual Memory
Information is entered into memory at the encoding stage, it resides in memory during a storage stage, and is bought back during the retrieval stage.

THE LABAN SOURCEBOOK
Dick McCaw
Rudolf Laban (1879-1958) was a pioneer in dance and movement, who found a extraordinary range of application for his ideas; from industry to drama, education to therapy. Laban believed that you can understand about human beings by observing how they move, and devised two complimentary methods of notating the shape and quality of movements.
