This paper develops the concept of disorientation as a constitutive but overlooked dimension of mobile life, and it explores the significance of disorientation for geographical thought. Conceptually, the paper argues that disorientation is a productive geographical concept for acknowledging how, at times, bodies can lose their orienting relations to other bodies, to actions, and to situations. These losses are explored through the themes of incomprehension, confusion, and disintegration, respectively. Substantively, through research with mobile worker households in Australia, the paper expands our understanding of geographies of mobility by interrogating non-traditional but increasingly common living scenarios created by intensified mobility. Methodologically, the paper develops a narrative approach to presenting the richly complex experiences of "left behind" mobile worker partners through impressionistic interview portraits. Disciplinarily, contributing to ongoing debates in geography on relationality and encounter, the paper provides a counterbalance to the dominant focus on relation construction, and it opens up space for thinking differently about what, exactly, is being encountered in disorienting experiences. that helped to sharpen our argument. A previous version of this paper was presented at the Department of Geography and Earth Sciences at Aberystwyth University and we are grateful to the seminar attendees for their useful comments.

“…He explains that when social scientists present stories as a way of communicating empirical findings, they confuse matters because their purposes differ, the storyteller accommodating a greater 'distance between words and the world'. 76 But, as Rose also acknowledges, stories and empirics do sometimes converge, as, for example, when cultural and social researchers engage with storying as a means of gathering, distilling, interpreting and disseminating findings. Doing so, they may try to tell representative stories, perhaps by ensuring that all participants have equal airtime and trying to draw their voices together into some coherent form.…”

This article works at the intersection of creative, participatory and critical research. It explores an emergent qualitative methodology that is creative and participatory but not is always as critical as it might be: collaborative storytelling or storying. Understandings of critical collaborative storytelling and (more generically and inclusively) storying are developed through an account of a series of storying workshops. In these workshops, a group of young British Muslims made a short animated film titled ‘Halal Dating’. In their animated film, the participants explored an otherwise hard-to-name part of their lives: sexual relationships. Thus, in addition to its methodological interest, this article may appeal to readers with more substantive interests in religion, young people, gender and sexuality.

“…In asking participants for vignettes of their experiences, we sought a storied experience of the event. Like Stewart's understanding of writing as a creative opening, Rose (2016) suggests that the potential of stories lies in the origins they both acknowledge and inaugurate. Rose argues that the telling of stories in research should not be thought of as evidence -empirics used in the service of a grand theory -but as ethical acts which reveal the origins of thought,disclose the utter reliance of the researcher on their encounters with others and by acknowledging the shared origins of our work,thus recognise the distributed ownership of the thought that emerges.…”

Experiential Attunements in an Illuminated City at Night: A Pedagogical Writing Experiment

et al. 2019

This article traces stories of singular footsteps taken on a collective meandering through Brisbane city, as a pedagogical experiment in writing for geographers. The diverse encounters recounted here took place as part of an extended workshop on the topic of light, beginning with an afternoon discussion, and ending in an evening walk through the illuminated city. This paper aims to do two things through the example of light: firstly, it explores the experiential attunements enacted in the event by resonating practices of talk with practices of movement, speculating on the enablements afforded by the conditions of the workshop. Secondly, presenting a range of writing that emerged out of this passage from world to word, this article is a performance of the diverse translations necessary to writing attunement. Refracted through an extended introduction by the event organisers, the vignettes that emerged from the day are then presented as something of a virtual walk in themselves: speaking to the entangled histories of the event, our bodies, and Brisbane city.
