“…Así, en los últimos años han sido muy interesantes los trabajos de: Christian Borch en sus estudios sobre la dimensión política del espacio afectivo (Borch, 2014), Tonino Griffero en sus teorías sobre bienestar que puede conseguirse a través de las atmósferas (Griffero, 2019), Dylan Trigg en sus intentos de determinar los procesos de intersubjetividad que se generan al interior de las atmósferas (Trigg, 2020), etcétera. Pero sin lugar a duda el académico que más puede haber profundizado en la filosofía de las evolventes en las cuales el ser humano se encuentra indefectiblemente inmerso desde el momento de su concepción es el alemán Peter Sloterdijk y su denominada trilogía de las esferas (Sloterdijk, 2014).…”

Based on a phenomenological approach, this current communication seeks to showcase the experiences of an architectural project studio. Building on the potential found on the topic of affective atmospheres, freshman students were prompted to take notice on the effect architectural space can have on the state of mind of those influenced by it, a set of exercises were put forward in order to produce some intended affective states by manipulating various atmospheric components. Manufactured ‘visual experience boxes’, consisting of scenic scale representations, were proposed as an operational tool. These phenomenographies enabled the gathering of quantifiable information on the subjective experience of every student that had been visually exposed to the atmospheres produced inside the boxes, as well as intersubjective information on the correlation regarding the meanings given to each of these experiences, thus revealing the emotional relevance of the existing space between the architectural object and the viewer. La presente comunicación busca visibilizar la experiencia de un taller de proyectos arquitectónicos sostenido por un enfoque fenomenológico. A partir de la potencialidad que se encontró en el tema de las atmósferas se buscó que estudiantes de primer año adviertan las capacidades que tiene el espacio arquitectónico para afectar anímicamente a las personas que se encuentran bajo su influencia y a partir de allí proponer ejercicios manipulando los diferentes componentes atmosféricos para generar estados afectivos intencionados. Como instrumento operativo se propuso la construcción de cajas de experiencias visuales a manera de representaciones escénicas a escala. Estas fenomenografías permitieron obtener información cuantificable sobre la experiencia subjetiva de cada estudiante al ser expuesto visualmente a las atmósferas generadas al interior de las cajas, así como también información intersubjetiva sobre las coincidencias en cuanto a los significados atribuidos a cada una de estas experiencias, revelando así la importancia anímica de una realidad intermedia existente entre el objeto arquitectónico y el espectador.

“…We might be wrong in two 5 Though this is not to say that we experience the atmosphere as equally distributed across those present. There may, for instance, be a concerntration of atmopshere around someone particularly expressive (Osler 2021a;Trigg 2020).…”

“…Language does the work of geopolitics and interpretive bodies are thus critical to this labour. Focusing on “emotionscapes” therefore enables a situated account of emotions and language in geopolitical exchange, revealing how interpretive bodies and their differentiated agency try to capture the emotion of others for others, supposedly carefully and accurately tying language with emotional intent by decoding and processing language’s emotional dimensions, and matching these appropriately to socio‐cultural context, including the mood and atmosphere of the “emotionscape” (Griffiths & Scarantino, 2009; Trigg, 2020). “Emotionscapes” have “socio‐spatial capacities” (Gandy, 2017, p. 369); affective geographies that spur feelings of trust or suspicion, acceptance or dismissal, certainty or diffidence.…”

“…Bodies generate different affective responses in one particular context and another; “emotionscapes” are therefore “tuned spaces” within which interpretive bodies are conscious of their own evaluation: in effect, the body is subjected to emotions done by the self on itself, by the self on others, and by others on the self in advance of, during, and post “emotionscape” performances. “Emotionscapes” are thus “grasped pre‐reflectively, manifest spatially, [and] felt corporeally” (Trigg, 2020, n.p. ).…”

“…In this context, the role of interpretive bodies in the capture and communication of emotionally expressive behaviours takes on increased significance in “problematizing the production and use of [geopolitical] knowledge in various orders of power and space” (Dalby & Ó Tuathail, 1996, p. 451). In the next sections, I address the “before,” “during,” and “after” of interpretive bodies’ engagement with and performance of geopolitics in the “emotionscape” of the Security Council to show how it is “grasped pre‐reflectively, manifest spatially, [and] felt corporeally” (Trigg, 2020, n.p. ).…”

The agency of interpreters has been kept out of view in human geography. This paper corrects this by focusing on embodied interpretation: bodies, freighted with their own relations, expectations, and experiences in the context of “emotionscapes,” settings for emotional communication. Conceptually, “emotionscapes” enable the exploration of the potentiality of an emotion in its spatial setting. Emotionally expressive behaviour is a process of the emotion; a potentiality to be realised. Emotions are distinctively connected to specific sites and spaces. This potentiality shifts the analytical focus away from what emotion is to what emotion can do to the alteration or reproduction of relations. I argue that this is vitally important to understanding geopolitical exchange, that is, how global politics is made and remade. However, the potentiality of emotions is made more complicated when interpretive bodies are involved in geopolitical exchange. They are intrinsic to the relational fluxes, currents, and flows of emotion – its potentialities – they identify and relay emotionally laden language of others for others in geopolitical communication. They observe, relay, and mutate emotional potentiality in “emotionscapes.” In doing so, they wrestle with more than just words. They seek to capture emotions and geopolitics between real‐life people in real places. Understanding their endeavour should challenge us therefore to [re]consider geopolitical exchange in “emotionscapes” and the mediatory and performative roles played by interpretive bodies in these spaces of geopolitical knowledge production. This is my key purpose in this paper. Underpinning the paper’s conceptual ideas are qualitative data on the role of interpretive bodies in realising emotional potentialities in the “emotionscape” of the UN Security Council in New York, arguably the most high‐profile geopolitical institution.
