As screens and the content they deliver increasingly dominate our lives, and those who once consumed also create, broadcast media are seeing trust in their authority diminish. Mediated Space critiques contemporary intersections of architecture and broadcast media that exploit spaces and places that are real, imagined or hybrids of the two in order to re-establish and strengthen the mechanisms of production and consumption.
In three thematic parts that focus on the automotive space of the city, the journalistic space of the news room and the mediated skyline of the city, Mediated Space makes an architectural critique of spaces that are rarely designed by architects but that are experienced every day by millions of people.
