Mediated Space; The Architecture of News, Advertising and Entertainment by James Benedict Brown

Author:James Benedict Brown

Tags: Just after ten o’clock on the cold winter’s evening of 23 December 2007, a car crashed through the windows of ABC7’s television news studio in Chicago. In so doing, it didn’t just shatter the physical boundary of the newsroom, but also ‘mediated space’: a hybrid digital and physical realm rarely designed by architects but experienced every day by millions; a space real, imagined, or a hybrid of the two; a space mediated – and exploited – by broadcast media. This is the nebulous territory that this book occupies. Organised into three parts – the mediated space of broadcast news, advertising and entertainment – the book explores the interface between space, broadcast media and architecture, offering a compelling critique of how these elements collude to assert a particular message or power structure. Academic in rigour, but accessible in tone and intent, Mediated Space will challenge ways of seeing and knowing (showing how these are co-produced by the creators and consumers of space), raising as many questions as it answers.
