Las fronteras invisibles de Europa, el continente dividido que esconden los mapas

Detrás de los mapas políticos mudos, se esconden otros que completan el puzzle histórico que conforma la realidad del presente europeo. Son las fronteras invisibles, divisiones que no apreciamos en los mapas comunes pero que perviven en las estadísticas y en las realidades sociales de cada país. Fantasmas de antiguos estados que desaparecieron hace más de un siglo o hace algunas décadas, divisiones culturales internas que la modernidad no ha apagado.

Italian Limes – Mapping the moving border across Italy’s glaciers

Italian Limes explores how natural borders—apparently unquestionable and self-evident—are in fact exposed to the complexity of long-term ecological processes, unveiling the problem of territorial representation and its political implications. Starting from an initial research into the archives of Istituto Geografico Militare in Florence, this section presents the main topics of the project, the design of the sensors installed on a glacier on the Italy–Austria border, and the resulting installation.

Independence Day

In 1989 Lumbfoot declared independence from the rest of the UK following a dispute between residents of Lumbfoot and residents of the nearby village, Stanbury. The Lumbfoot residents, led by Louis Shepherd, erected a road barrier and signs declaring independence, and used two stone outbuildings (former privies) as a ‘douane’ and a ‘gendarmerie’. This declaration of independence was reported in the county newspaper, the Yorkshire Post.

As part of the independence declaration, Lumbfoot was twinned with Lhasa, Tibet. The signpost shown in the photograph reads ‘Lumbfoot, twinned with Lhasa, Tibet’ and indicates the current number of residents – human, dogs (muttleys) and cats (moggies).
