In the 80s there was this idea of "situational geography" but it seems
to have disappeared. Not sure why but it may have been a victom of
affiliation with the SSSM.

No Sense of Place JOSHUA MEYROWITZ - 1986
Preface
At one time physical presence was a prerequisite for first-hand
experience. to see and hear a President speak in his office. for
example. you had to be with him in his office. If you read his speech
in the newspaper or if you listened to an account given by someone
else present at the time. what you read or heard was at best second-
hand information. Live and mediated communications were once vastly
dissimilar this is no longer the case.
