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 power of traditional capitalist mechanisms of production and consumption.

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.
