Description: |
Transdiscourse 1 explores the ways that art, architecture, technology and science can shape urban societies and their rural alternatives. Readers will find a transdisciplinary perspective that encourages a more tangible approach to the ways society interprets environment through conditioned representations of media. |
Synopsis: |
"Mediated Environments" addresses the problem that society interprets our environment through conditioned and constructed representations of mainstream media and not in a transdisciplinary way with the help of artists, architects, filmmakers, cultural theorists and scientists. The writers who come from these various backgrounds all wish to give media artists, designers and writers a new role in relation to the pressing issues of urban and rural life: ones that can address the challenges of human psychology, recycling, agricultural production, climate chaos and energy conservation. The main aims were to focus on the potentials of creative work to raise public awareness and to find new discourses that can be shared within the areas of mediated architecture, eco art, experimental documentary film, eco-emergent design and art and science collaborations. The editors believe that a closer transdisciplinary working relationship could encourage a more tangible approach to these problems of the future. |
