abstract |
By investigating the experience of night-cycling, this paper redresses the overwhelming
focus in mobility studies on the apprehension of landscape by daylight. Drawing on
Matt’s cycling diary of his regular night rides through rural Bedfordshire, we explore
the distinctive ways in which dark landscape is experienced. We discuss various effects:
the shaping of perception by the beam of the head torch; an ongoing attunement to
differing levels of light and dark; the affordances of the cycle and other equipment;
enhanced awareness of the vital rhythms of landscape; and imaginaries stimulated by
passage through darkness. We, thereby, aim to contribute to revaluing darkness. |
