The Transcultural Mapping Reader
Setting a Boundary for Locative Media
This prototype category 'locative media', a term coined by Karlis Kalnins, was explored at a cross-disciplinary workshop at K@2 in Karosta, Latvia in late summer of 2003. Following discussions in Karosta, a series of Transcultural Mapping workshops were initiated by Rasa Smite and RIXC as part of the E.U. culture 2000 programme...Following the Transcultural Mapping (TCM) open call for papers Rasa Smite and Marc Tuters selected and edited texts for printed publication...and Rasa and Ben Russell put together this online TCM Reader, an extended collection of the raw unedited texts. The TCM Reader can be read as setting some boundary stones for the test category of locative media.
