They\u2019ve both been on here separately but today we\u2019re discussing their new edited book \u2018Technical Lands: A Critical Primer\u2019. As they state in the book, designating land as technical is a political act and doing so entails dividing, marginalizing, and rendering portions of the Earth inaccessible. This is land that is often invisible and remote. The range of contributing authors includes architectural historians, landscape architects, anthropologists, sociologists as well as cultural and political geographers. This \u2018deep bench\u2019 of disciplinary practices is needed to better understand and draw out how technical lands are defined and maybe even more importantly, demonstrate why it\u2019s necessary to bring them to the foreground of our conversations.   Hope you enjoy the episode and until next time... take care.  Technical Lands: A Critical Primer  Other episodes linked to the topic include Ep 072 Jane Hutton, \u2018Reciprocal Landscapes\u2019 , Ep 097 Michael Jakob, \u2018Faux Mountains\u2019, Ep 056 Bradley Cantrell, \u2018AI and Wildness\u2019 and many others.
