We will first discuss current research as well as key theoretical and methodological paradigms to investigate linguistic landscapes and illustrate, how space is conceptualized within a variety of different research contexts and objectives. We will then move on to illustrate the pragmatics of linguistic landscaping by drawing from a case study that investigates the Philippine jeepney as a mobile communicative space that exhibits and constructs a variety of competing discourses embedded within Filipino culture, among them colonialism, nationalism, migration, Christianity, social conservatism, and patriarchy. To conceptualize the jeepney as a mobile space we will draw from Kress and van Leeuwen{\textquoteright}s (2006) grammar of visual design and Scollon and Scollon{\textquoteright}s (2003) notion of geosemiotics. In bringing together text, visual design and wider social context, the jeepney becomes an assemblage of material object, (colonial) history, discourse, and affect.
