Strange Spaces (eBook, ePUB)

Explorations into Mediated Obscurity
Redaktion: Lagerkvist, Amanda

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Certain bizarre spaces, where disruption or disarray rule, leave us estranged and 'out of place'. This book examines such spaces, highlighting the emotional and mediated geographies of uncertainty and the state of being 'in-between'; of cognitive displacement, loss, fear, or exhilaration. It expands on why space is sometimes estranging and for whom it is strange.
