Graffiti as conversation
I've been photographing layers of conversation in graffiti, and tagging the pictures with "conversation":http://www.flickr.com/photos/timo/tags/conversation/. Prior art for "spatial annotation":http://www.elasticspace.com/2004/06/spatial-annotation?

Photos of touch-based interfaces
In the way that Victor Lombardi is collecting images of cardreaders, I am beginning to collect images of touch-based interfaces like the Oyster card and other 'touchable' interfaces on public transport. If you want to contribute, tag your photos with 'touchinterface'.

Spatial memory at Design Engaged 2004
Here is my presentation [pdf] and presentation notes from Design Engaged 2004. Lots of pretty pictures of stickers, tags, flyposting and such. I will chip in with Dan, Adam, Matt, Molly and Fabio to say that this has been the conference highlight of the year.

Time that land forgot
Timo Arnall & Even Westvang.
At the Iceland inside and out workshop Even Westvang and Timo Arnall collaborated on a project looking at ways of contextualising photographs by time and geography. We chose to shift the balance of representation away from location, towards image and time. This is a summary of our ideas and process, with an initial working prototype.
Photography and mapping from Afar
My piece for ‘Afar’ in Copenhagen documents the time from 27 February to 19 May 2004. It presents a linear sequence of images alongside personal maps.
Geo-referenced photography
In Hofn, Iceland we are working on tools for geographic and time-referenced photography. This is our research into platforms and tools for connecting photographic and geographic data.

Public markup
This research looks at the marking of public space by investigating the physical annotation of the city: stickering, graffiti and billboards. It attempts to find patterns in this marking practice by looking at visibility, techniques, process, location, content and audience. It proposes ways in which this marking can be used as a layer between the physical city, and digital spatial annotation.

Travelogue
I have been treating digital photography as a narrative medium taking sequences of photographs to suggest movement, place, stories, journeys and discovery. In the near future I hope to to link images back to places using a GPS receiver, to produce some semi-automated travelogues. There is a lot of research to be done around contextualised imagery, and about mapping in relation to photography.
