'In early 2012, I was invited by Pilbara Writers group in Karratha to make a
poetry map for the Pilbara region when they saw the Poetry 4 U website
(http://poetry4U.org ) where poems are pinned to geographic locations. I visited the
Pilbara June 17 - 23, 2012 to commence the poetry mapping project with members of
the Pilbara Writers group. By walking with video when writers took me to their
favourite places I was able to document visceral intersubjective experiences of these
places, of being there together, so that I could empathically share the writers' sense of
landscape. This paper discusses what happens when a hodological approach is taken to
explore connections and flows between poetic expressions, places and landscapes.' (Author's abstract)
