Environmental Configurations: Media, Infrastructure, Place-making
June 9th, 9:30-16:00, DMLL (3rd floor) at Frederick Lanchester
Library, Coventry University, Gosford St, Coventry CV1 5DD
The twenty-first century proliferation of digital infrastructures
marks the simultaneous hyperinflation and the abolition of the concept
of the medium. In this daylong seminar we examine the changing role of
infrastructures, place-making and culture in the production of
environmental media configurations as space and platform. Participants
include Francesco Casetti (Yale), Vinzenz Hediger (Frankfurt), Miriam
de Rosa (Coventry), and Bernard Geoghegan (Coventry).
