Focus Producing Places
(2014)
Producing places is a twofold topic. It can refer to places as sites that produce something, that are productive, that have operations unfold, or actions happen, or objects emerge. Or it can refer to the fabrication of places as specific entities themselves. With the extended availability and practicability of digital positioning, locating, and tracking systems, it has become evident that places are not just there, but that they are generated, that they are subject to mediatechnological operations and effects. Nonetheless, and at the same time, the aspect of places as being productive has also attracted considerable attention. Furthermore, in either perspective, a media-theoretical challenge has come up. It invests two different threads within the realm of conceptualizing not only space, but precisely place under conditions of media, both of them leading way back into the evolution of media societies and cultural technologies.
