Inhalt: In this seminar, we will deepen and apply the knowledge of media geography theory acquired in the winter semester. The seminar will focus on how geography and different media formats (e.g., film, photography, video games, graffiti and street art, sound and music, advertising, etc.) are related and can be researched. The topics are not only addressed in the seminar sessions – a major activity is the creation of a media geography blog in which participants work on different topics. The blog is also the graded project for successful module completion. Course Objectives: Students will deepen their knowledge of media geography and are able to apply this knowledge to topics relevant to research and everyday life contexts. Students will learn about the connection between geographical perspectives and media forms as well as specific subdisciplines of media geography. Students will implement these topics as a final project in an academic multimedia blog and gain skills in the field of academic blogging. Requirements:
