My PhD project explores the formation of spatial knowledge on digital maps throughthe lens of experimental cartographic practices in contemporary visual culture. The studyfocuses on the role of temporal dimension, including real-time techniques and short periodof time as phenomenon, in shaping spatial knowledge and examines the map-makingprocesses. These practices in this thesis involve artists and individual creators reshapingdigital maps, challenging the official and commercial representations of space in terms ofpopular digital mapping software and applications such as Google Map. The researchquestions address how the real-time technologies influence experimental cartographicpractices in short duration, the temporal modes present in map-making, and the impact ofvisual products on understanding contemporary history and social memory.As an attempt to bring temporal technique and spatial knowledge together, thetheoretical framework of this PhD project draws from Bernard Stiegler's concept ofmnemotechnics into discussion along with other scholars on media studies and art history.The thesis also incorporates Aby Warburg's ideas on cultural artifacts. By exploring themediation of digital maps and the interaction between artistic recreation and original maps,the research contributes to a discussion on how these cartographic production can re-shapeand re-form knowledge from a combined perspective of technologies, media, and images.This approach can examine the characteristics of indexicality, addressability, and image atlasin fake maps and how they contribute to the knowledge formation from false information.The plan for the second year includes further exploration of relevant artworks and designprojects and a focus on the political aspects of individual and governmental relationshipsmediated through techniques.The literature review section of this report discusses three main topics whichcircumscribes the research field of my thesis: considering the relationship between artisticmapping projects and spatial knowledge, viewing digital mapping as mediation, and thetime-space and space-time debates in geography and sociology as background of myresearch. Situating in the intersection of these three areas, which is not perfectly outlinedthough, my thesis positions itself in an interdisciplinary approach encompasses criticaltheory, media archaeology, art history, and human and cultural geography.

我的博士项目通过当代视觉文化中实验性制图实践的镜头，探索数字地图上空间知识的形成。本研究侧重于时间维度在形成空间知识中的作用，包括实时技术和短时间段现象，并考察了地图的制作过程。本论文中的这些实践涉及艺术家和个人创作者重塑数字地图，挑战流行的数字地图软件和应用程序(如Google Map)对空间的官方和商业表示。这些研究问题涉及实时技术如何影响短期内的实验性制图实践，地图制作中存在的时间模式，以及视觉产品对理解当代历史和社会记忆的影响。作为将时间技术和空间知识结合在一起的尝试，这个博士项目的理论框架借鉴了伯纳德·斯蒂格勒的记忆技术概念，与其他媒体研究和艺术史学者一起讨论。论文还纳入了阿比·沃伯格关于文化艺术品的思想。通过探索数字地图的制作以及艺术创作与原始地图之间的互动，本研究有助于讨论这些地图制作如何从技术、媒体和图像的结合角度来重塑和重塑知识。这种方法可以检查索引性、可寻址、第二年的计划包括进一步探索相关的艺术品和设计项目，并重点关注通过技术调解的个人和政府关系的政治方面。本报告的文献综述部分讨论了三个主要主题，它们限制了我论文的研究领域：考虑艺术制图项目与空间知识的关系，将数字地图视为中介，将地理学和社会学中的时空辩论作为我研究的背景。我的论文位于这三个领域的交叉点，但并不是完全勾勒出来的，我的论文以跨学科的方法定位，包括批评理论、媒体考古学、艺术史和人文与文化地理学。
