“…Bob Jesse's language of containment resonates with a wider framing in the psychedelic community of the work of set and setting as about building appropriate containers for psychedelic use. As medical intervention, the aspiration to successfully contain psychedelic experiences evokes precision, resonating with similar imperatives in relation to disease (Cohen, 2011) and nuclear waste (Freeman, 2019). In embracing the language of 'set and setting' as part of a strategic distancing from the tumult of the 'psychedelic sixties', medicalizing discourses seeking to re-legitimize psychedelic therapy are successfully braiding epistemic and therapeutic imperatives with political and economic ones.…”

“…Following his approach, we can understand echo as not simply heard, but sensed, and emerging from our embodied presence and movements in space. Looking at sensuous echoes with our surroundings is also a way of shifting memory away from a solely individual, interior, or “private” matter to instead pay attention to its relationship with spaces, affect, and social worlds (Freeman, 2019; Freeman et al, 2016; Napolitano, 2015; Navaro-Yashin, 2009). As Dib writes, “memory is not simply an amorphous entity that resides in our heads but rather an intimate and social phenomenon that occurs through objects, technologies, people, and places” (2012: 46).…”

Echoing memories: Migration, the senses, and the city in Metro Vancouver, Canada

Using images, video, and text, I weave together two walks and several conversations on the senses, migration, and memory. I focus on echoes or resonances as a method to attend to the relation between remembering, sensory emplacement and urban materialities. Using comments from my interlocutors who migrated to Metro Vancouver from outside Canada, as well as autobiographical reflections on sensate memories in urban landscapes, I investigate how forgetting and memory are co-implicated, and I propose that echoes can help us think of spatial and social displacements. I include digital meaning making practices like videos, photographs, and montage, as well as hand-written notes, stories, lists, and drawings. These in turn accompany the kinesthetic inhabiting of the city through walking, standing, and sensing in place.

A wonderland for wolves: A sociography of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone

I was writing about the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone when the global pandemic of Covid-19 hit. Everywhere I looked news articles crowded with infographics of the infected made me suspicious of spheres: curves needed flattening. No matter where I turned for information there were human shapes in rings marking distance. I was disturbed by how often the phrase ‘what goes around comes around’ popped into my head, like some kind of self-hazing ritual initiating me into a new normal. As I send this sociography to publication, Russia has invaded Ukraine. The Chernobyl Zone, along with the rest of the country, has become a battlefield. There is no other way for me to write this, from a distance, other than to do so through a looping disorientation. And so I write by turning paragraphs into zones that surround ideas, memories, facts, and feelings of place that are never stable, but always on the move.
