ABSTRACT

This article explores research methods around the generative process of remembering spaces. It discusses a participant’s extraordinary lists and drawings, ‘maps’ of factory layouts, created from memory, of an industrial heritage site, a woollen mill closed in 1971, situated in Ipswich, Queensland, Australia. These methods investigate the conditions, and entanglements across time, that enable detailed recall. The paper considers both, methods in the present that create an affective resonance with the past; and types of experiences in the past creating detailed memories in the present. The findings offer a combination of ethnographic methods for accessing those memories by being in-situ with participants through interviews, drawings, site walkthroughs, photo-elicitation and a perspective of wayfaring. Thus, the article contributes to geographical methods research exploring the generative, iterative and affective productions of memory and place.

摘要

本文探讨了围绕记忆空间生成过程的研究方法。它讨论了参与者的非凡清单和图纸，工厂布局的“地图”，根据记忆创建的工业遗址，这是一家位于澳大利亚昆士兰州伊普斯威奇的毛纺厂，于 1971 年关闭。这些方法调查了能够进行详细回忆的条件和跨时间的纠缠。该论文考虑了当前与过去产生情感共鸣的两种方法；过去的经历和类型在现在创造了详细的记忆。这些发现提供了一种人种学方法的组合，可以通过就地访问这些记忆通过访谈、绘图、现场走查、照片启发和远足的视角与参与者交流。因此，本文有助于地理方法研究探索记忆和地点的生成、迭代和情感产生。
