Medium unter Medien

Architektur und die Produktion moderner Raumverhältnisse

How architecture became a medium

In the modern world, architecture interacts with and within networks. Long before they began to communicate with digital devices, houses were permeated by technical systems, buildings were conceived as nodes of transportation infrastructures, and ever-larger complexes were overlaid with information systems. In this process, architecture itself was understood as a medium, organizing access, connection, and shielding.　

This volume presents current positions of architectural research grounded in media and cultural history. The focus is on the question of how architecture, as one medium amongst other media, contributes to the emergence of new spatialities that influence knowledge, subjectivity, and social behavior, as well as climate and environment.　

• German media studies meets Anglo-American history of architecture　
• A current view of architecture as a medium
• With contributions by Zeynep Çelik Alexander, Christoph Asendorf, Beatriz Colomina, Mark Crinson, Moritz Gleich, Tom Holert, Christa Kamleithner, Reinhold Martin, Roland Meyer, Bernhard Siegert, and Meredith TenHoor
