非物质文化地理学研究还未形成统一的思维体系,难以将地理信息科学的方法引入研究过程。提出了非物质文化景观载体思想,包括艺人、文化团体、作坊、作品、受众、店铺与市场等实载体和互联网等信息空间中的虚拟载体。通过载体空间化,将非物质文化景观研究融入传统文化地理研究框架中。将非物质文化景观研究的空间尺度划分为大、中、小和微观尺度,并对单文化、多文化和全文化载体景观的时间尺度界定进行详细剖析。在载体、空间化和时空尺度等基本问题解析的基础上,吸纳新文化地理学思想,建构了非物质文化景观研究的时空思维体系,并使研究视角趋向多元化。基于文化载体的时空思维体系是地理信息科学方法用于非物质文化地理研究的基础,对文化地理学具有重要的理论和实践意义。
There is no universal thinking system for intangible cultural geography researches, and we also have some barriers of introducing method of regular geographic information representation into the research proce- dure. The authors provide a new idea for representation of intangible cultural landscape, which is constructed by the landscape carriers. The culture landscape carriers can be divided into two types, one is called the physical car- rier and the other is the virtual carrier. The physical carriers can be artists, culture organizations, workshops, works, audiences, and shops and stores. The virtual carriers are websites, forums, and blogs etc. which are emer- ging in World Wide Web or other medium. By the spatial representation of cultural landscape carriers, the intangi- ble cultural geography research can be integrated into the thinking framework of traditional cultural geography re- search. The spatial scale of intangible cultural landscape research is divided into 4 grades, such as large spatial scale, middle spatial scale, small spatial scale, and micro spatial scale. The way of temporal scale division is ana- lysed comprehensivly, especially for the culture landscapes constructed based on a single carrier, multi-carriers, and the whole carriers. By absorbing the academic ideas of New Cultural Geography, the authors provided a system of spatio-temporal thingking for researches on intangible cultural landscape, which is based on the fundamental re- search points, such as culture landscape carriers, spatial representation of carriers, and spatio-temporal scales. This spatio-temporal thinking system will help to introduce methods of geographic information science into the re- searches of intangible cultural geography, and provide muhi-views for information mining. This study has an impor- tant theoretical and practical meaning for cultural geography research.
