Synopsis

 An exciting new interdisciplinary and intercontinental volume that brings together scholars and practitioners working at the intersection of architecture, urbanism, and digital media.

Space in the Image focuses on cinematic and photographic portrayals of the built environment, from individual buildings to entire cities. It addresses a timely and relevant topic, reflecting the prominence of urbanization and the widespread use of digital audiovisual media in architecture, planning, and design. The work engages with both contemporary practice and current debates in the field.

In light of the growing ubiquity of media platforms and the immediacy of digital representation, the contributors critically examine the evolving relationship between spatial experience and its mediated forms. These inquiries are situated within the broader context of accelerating urbanization, making the book timely for architects, urban designers, planners, and media theorists alike. Rather than treating images as static records of the past, the volume interrogates their role as active participants in shaping contemporary urban life, identity, and memory.

Space in the Image offers a compelling reflection on the dynamic interplay between experience and representation at the close of the first quarter of the twenty-first century.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

His scholarly background is interdisciplinary, based in English literature, philosophy, sociology and psychology, and oriented around media and representation. Current research involves exploring architectures of (visual) media, focusing on how contemporary narrations engage discursively, sociopolitically and psychologically with subjectivities, and how they enable the emergence of individual agency and voices.
