ABSTRACT
The subject matter of geography is peculiar in many respects. Whereas other disciplines have restricted and well-defined domains of subject matter, geography seems to be able to handle anything, at least if ‘anything’ can be given some spatial attributes, or if ‘anything’ can be attributed some spatial consequences. Yet I think it is possible to qualify these ‘anythings’ in such a way that geography emerges as a discipline with a most interesting subject matter of its own. In my own perception of geography, most of these ‘anythings’ can be seen as aspects of different no-things, entities that are no things, but nevertheless are ingredients of the stuffing of the world. In what follows, I will call these entities passages, and the stuff they constitute will be called communicative intermedia.
