Negotiating the Mediated City: Everyday Encounters with Public Screens
This book is an interdisciplinary empirical investigation of how people interact with public screens in their daily lives. In more and more surprising locations, screens of various kinds appear within the sightlines of passers-by in contemporary cities. Outdoor advertisers target audiences which are increasingly mobile, public art uses screens to interrogate urban change, and postmodern architecture fi nds electronic imagery a suitable tool of expression. Traditionally, urban sociology research has assumed that people seek to fi lter urban stimuli, but recent accounts of public screens suggest producers design and position display interfaces site-specifi cally, so as to engage with those moving past. This study offers insight both into the dynamics of actual encounters and into the long-term process of how people learn to live with repeated invitations to consume media in public spaces. The book includes four cases: street advertising, underground transport advertising, installation art in London (UK), and media façade architecture in Zadar (Croatia). Krajina shows that maintaining familiarity with everyday surroundings in media cities, which change beyond citizens’ control, is a temporary achievement—and a recursive struggle.
