'We need to find ways for the public to be involved with planning & therefore imagine future solutions. There is much to be gained from sharing personal stories & to remind ourselves that compromise will happen'

This paper explores the four-stage method which underpinned my PhD project: interviewing people on foot & working with performance artists through events & walking tours. Being playful helps people to open up & offers meaningful insights which lead to better researcher qestions.

🤔 What would Wales be without NationCymru?
Less scrutiny.
Fewer Welsh stories.
A weaker voice.

Ok. That's a field that I don't know at all. There may be links to Bachelard or something in the world of literary goegraphy perhaps? Lots of writing here literarygeographies.net/inde…
What is your article going to be called? That can help focus on certain terminology. And where will it be going? My other thought is that psychogeography should always be open to what is out there. How do walking and other methods help us find out what kind of vibe exists?
Good question Victoria. What does vibe mean to you? It is about shared feelings, a sense of place, vibrancy, mood, even a lack of energy. Give it some other descriptions in words you are familiar with and we can connect you to some theories. – at Cardiff, Wales
