地理学家已经证明了景观表征对理解社会地理的中心作用。这篇文章表明，到目前为止，更多的注意力已经支付的表示比创建这些表示的做法。以流行摄影为例，本文认为，这种对表征的关注错过了一些重要的过程，并再现了一些社会意识形态。首先，也许令人惊讶的是，关注摄影的实践有助于恢复视觉理论中经常声称丢失的经验的身体现实性。其次，这种体验体现了通过技术和认识论来强调视觉世界的中介作用。第三，它建议研究实践取代了地理学的一些方式，这些方式已经假定了一种“真实的”大众经验，而不是它的复合形式。这些想法是参照流行的，主要是旅游摄影追求。总的来说，它建议这样的方法集中注意力的时间和空间的旅游体验的新方式。文章坚持在旅游实践中所涉及的时间的微妙形式-通过未来完美体验的想法。它还建议通过并置的旅游空间，通过图片技术的时间空间化。为了调和这些发展，本文进一步建议，我们需要看的不是视觉感知的景点，但他们的体现，技术本体感受;而且，为了逃避真实/商品化的陷阱，我们必须通过一个替代的经验，而不是通过在场的想法。最后，它建议，这可能是重要的，通过适当的研究策略，介导的经验。
Geographers have shown the centrality of representations of landscape to understanding social geographies. This article suggests that so far more attention has been paid to the representations than the practices that create these representations. Using the example of popular photography, this article suggests that such a focus on representations misses some important processes and reproduces some social ideologies. First, perhaps surprisingly, focusing on the practices of photography serves to reinstate the corporeality of experience often claimed to be lost in visual theory. Secondly, this embodied experience serves to highlight the mediation of visual worlds through technologies and epistemologies. Thirdly, it is suggested studying practices displaces some of the ways geography has posited an ‘authentic’ popular experience against its commodified forms. These ideas are pursued with reference to popular and principally tourist photography. In total it is suggested that such an approach focuses attention on the times and spaces of tourist experience in novel ways. The article insists on the subtle forms of time involved in touristic practices – through the idea of future perfect experience. It also suggests the spatialization of time through the juxtaposition of tourist spaces through pictorial technology. In order to reconcile these developments, the article further suggests that we need to look at not the visual perception of sights but their embodied, technological proprioception; and, to escape the authentic/commodified trap, we must think through a displaced idea of experience not through presence. Finally, it is suggested that this may be important in thinking through appropriate research strategies for mediated experience.
