Media technologies shape the experience of human mobility. Since their origins, print and electronic media have moved text, image, sound, voice, narrative, and data over vast distances so that we can connect with people and places both real and imagined. Today’s smartphones and mobile devices have further extended our mediated mobility and created new digital pathways for virtual social connection and geographic exploration. This course examines the mobility of old and new media in all its senses. A variety of apps, tools and methods are used to understand and visualize how media technologies have changed our landscape, reorganized our senses, and reconfigured our perceptions of place and space.
