This paper is an edited version of a written dialogue that took place between the fall of 2008 and the summer of 2009
between a filmmaker (Amelia Bryne) and a cartographer (Se´bastien Caquard) around the issue of representing
globalization. In these conversations, we define some of the key means for representing globalization in both mapmaking
and filmmaking discussing local/global, strategic/tactical, data/narrative and unique/multiple perspectives. We conclude
by emphasizing the potential impact of new media in ushering in hybrid digital products that merge means of
representation traditional to filmmaking and cartography.
