Forensic Intimacy: A Digital Exploration of 'Non-Place'

Abstract

The intention here is to further promote the trans-disciplinary debate surrounding the urban 'non-place', through several signposted arguments, each of which seeks to reveal the contestable nature of 'non-place', by discussing its relationship to the following key themes: identification, childhood, cultural valorisation, 'new landscape', anthropological space, the palimpsest, and digital re-presentation. This study is supported by a selection of my most recent digital photographs, which investigate a specific urban 'non-place' in the centre of Leeds, UK.
