Quest for Deep Maps
a curated narrative in n blogs
Some have travelled from afar,
To sit round the table
Where the gauntlet was thrown down -
Deep Maps, are they able?
Ambiguity hung thick
On vocab’lary
And representation by
Some cartography.
Space, place and community,
Persons embodied,
Narratives with metaphors
Cosmically married.
Geographic narrative -
System or what?
Causes and affordances
Deconstruct or not?
Religious narrative of
Spatial dimension…
But for day one, its enough
Focused attention.
(perhaps I should stick to numbers)
- Allan Brimicombe
