To some extent this took place in Turku, too. According to a Sensotra participant the Turku situationists had puzzling slogans such as \u201cHooray for what?\u2019 [El\u00e4k\u00f6\u00f6n mimmoinen?] and \u201cIf you go somewhere, you can expect anything\u201d. [Jos menet jonnekin, voit odottaa mit\u00e4 tahansa.] The act of repainting signs in the park was described as follows: \u201cThen we painted \u00b4Please keep off the grass\u2019 signs. We collected them at night and with a couple of artists painted new slogans and then brought the signs back again. It didn\u2019t have much effect, though. City workers collected them in the Autumn and brought them back the next Spring. They practically circulated the ones we had painted!\u201d<\/p>\n
Situationist International<\/em> was a movement, which was afraid of recuperation. Their fundamental fear was that the situationists\u2019 ideas would be first trivialized and sterilized, and then they\u2019d be safely incorporated\u00a0back within mainstream society, where they can be exploited to add new flavours to old dominant ideas. In retrospect, it looks like that Turku situationists were not necessarily afraid of recuperation, but perhaps slightly amused of it.<\/p>\n The act of remembering occurred in given places meaningful to sensobiographic walkers. In this specific context multifaceted definitions of place could benefit from Edward Casey\u2019s ideas, which make the relationship to physical places utterly dynamic: culture is carried into places by bodies. Thus, memories of individuals are connected to factual events and places become layered ethnographic histories of a given urban environment.<\/p>\n Furthermore, as part of the data analysis and in support of sensobiographic research, it is possible to combine the information generated by walking method with the social and cultural history of a particular place and area. During a sensobiographic walk urban experiences are composed of sensed environment, individual and collective memories and remembering, which are then shared with the fellow walkers participating to research. With this in mind two walks were carried out in Spring 2018 in Turku, Finland, with two participants and a researcher documenting the discussion. Both walkers had […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":205,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-430","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-heikki-uimonen"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
