In this seminar, we will deepen and apply the knowledge of media geography theory acquired in the past winter semester. In order to apply our theoretical knowledge of media geography to relevant topics in everyday life contexts, we will explore the connection between geographical perspectives and media forms as well as specific subdisciplines of media geography (e.g. photography, film, videogames, comics, journalism, sound & music, street art). Thereby, the seminar will focus on how geography and different media formats are related and can be researched. The topics are addressed in the sessions and build the basis for the major activity: the creation of a media geography blog. Therefore, you will implement an individual topic of your choice as a final (graded) project in a multimedia portfolio and gain skills in the field of academic blogging (submission: November 1st 2023). The course will take place as a multi-day workshop between 24-28 July 2023. The exact schedule will be announced in our preliminary meeting on 30 March (hybrid).
