Course Title: Seminar: 'Queer Mapping'
Start Date: 01/23/2023 End Date: 05/08/2023
Term: Spring Semester 2023
Description: The ability for LGBTQ+ people to claim, develop, and sustain spaces has been a highly contentious process. Due to shifts in political ideologies, cultural mores, and communications, media, and technology, the ability to record the existence of LGBTQ+ places has grown-but only in certain locations for certain groups, especially in the US. Reading from queer, feminist, and trans geographic theory and methods, how can we make use of mapping techniques to render LGBTQ+ publics? What are the ethical concerns of LGBTQ+ mapping projects? Drawing on basic GIS techniques to create our own queer maps, how do may we theorize the present and future of queer and trans public and private space?
