“…The media and their uses are no longer perceived as separated from our daily practices and our bodies (cf. also Krajina, 2014: 2). Media diary keepers refer to digital intimate media as a place where there is always something happening and going on.…”

The article argues for the audience studies, which draws on the analysis of artifactual, spatial, temporal, and sensorial aspects of media consumption and builds on, that is, the so-called medium theory and theory of practice in sociology. In the second part of the article, we interpret the results of a qualitative empirical study regarding the daily use of media technology among young people, aged between 19 and 29 years. The study finds that circumstances, under which digital media have colonized all spheres of public life and under which online social life has become completely naturalized, have led to constant online connectivity as well as highly fragmented and dispersed communication practices of users moving between different media. The analysis of media consumption diaries points to radical mediatization, which plays an important role in the changing generational structure of feeling.

Yet, there is little empirical evidence about why audiences engage with ambient advertising and if it encourages a longer and deeper consideration of the meaning of the advert. This study compares what academics and advertising industry creatives think about engagement with participants in-field with two media interventions. The aim of this study is to assess whether audiences are prepared to engage with low-cost ambient advertising away from point-of-sale. If so, then ambient advertising can be a useful, tactical and immediate response for smaller organisations and social activists seeking to do good.

“…In the second half of the twentieth century, the screen emerged as the new constitutive element that upgrades the wall from opaque, passive agent and container of bodies to translucent, active vector of signs, signifieds and values (Brighenti, 2009; Tripodi, 2009b). The ‘city of screens’ epitomizes the shift from organizing and containing the circulation of people and goods to a vertical organization of semantic surfaces essential to the circulation of images and abstract values (Krajina, 2016). Urban planning moves from the logistics of its horizontal extension to programming successions of frames and streams of information, a matter of managing an urban palimpsest by deploying a logistics of perception (Virilio, 2005).…”

“…Film production stands as a model for spatial production in the cinematic city, where the development of fictional narratives is the framework for triggering and consolidating processes of urban restructuring (Tripodi, 2009a). The influence of entertainment industry and the media sector is increasingly entwined with spatial development and real estate, as shown in the key role of corporations such as Time Warner, JCDecaux, etc., in developing and managing urban spaces (Krajina, 2016; Sassen & Roost, 1999). But the entertainment and media industry itself is being rewritten by the current paradigmatic shift into the network society (Castells, 2000).…”

Telescoping the City: Technological Urbiquity, or Perceiving Ourselves from the Above

The paradigmatic turn into network society has radically transformed the capacity to situate ourselves into geographical extension and communities. While the view from above has historically represented privileged vantage points reserved for elites, the popularization of mobile digital devices and the general technological acceleration have disclosed new elevated standpoints to the masses, such as those provided by mobile phones locative applications, imposing them as banal stances in the everyday practice of global citizens. The steady use of internet maps and satellite infrastructure allows the instant telescoping of the individual gaze to the above, augmenting individual capacity to real time position oneself with pinpoint accuracy onto the planetary grid and visually investigate distant realities in trans-scalar continuity. This text proposes the concept of technological urbiquity as a neologism to describe a fast-emerging techno-social condition that provides remote access to almost everything that once was the reason for the city to exist and endorses the process of planetary urbanization. It is a condition that, I want to argue, has a disruptive capacity in respect to consolidated geographical categories and social roles, but that also obscures the emerging subjacent techno-political order and its inherent fragility and unsustainability.
