“…While I focused on Foursquare in this article, there are other mobile applications, such as Socialight (Humphreys & Liao, 2011), that also provide platforms for location-based composition. Through an understanding of the theories of hybrid space and spatial legibility, we are better able to understand how these forms of composition represent the merging of digital information and physical space and how they can impact the ways people "read" and "write" physical space.…”

“…In hybrid spaces, people often connect with one another by producing their own content. Consequently, people using mobile applications like Foursquare or Socialight move through hybrid spaces because they can produce information and access information created by other users (Humphreys & Liao, 2011). This differentiates these social applications from locative media art pieces such as Janet Cardiff's (2005) Audio Walks; Teri Rueb's (2005) Itinerant; and Jeff Knowlton, Naomi Spellman, and Jeremy Hight's (n.d.) 34N 118W that make people go to certain locations to follow a narrative designed by the artists.…”

“…For the person using the application, the information is part of the experience of that space, refuting the imagined cyberspace/physical space dichotomy (Lemos, 2010). Just as someone may use graffiti to "mark" a space, people can now contribute geotagged texts that remain embedded in that physical location and accessible to other people using the same mobile application (Humphreys & Liao, 2011;Løvlie, 2011).…”

Media Practices and Urban Politics: Conceptualizing the Powers of the Media-Urban Nexus

2014

The spatial imaginations of media studies and urban studies are increasingly aligned, illustrated by a growing literature on what can be identified as the media—urban nexus. This nexus has attracted scholarly interest not only as a cultural phenomenon, but also as a site of emergent political dynamics. We suggest that literature on the media—urban nexus points to the always-already present conditions of possibility for a translocal, relational urban politics. Current conceptualizations of the politics of urbanized media, however, tend to fall into one of two registers: conflicts over the access to and regulation of urban media spaces; or the silent politics that media inscribe into the affective textures of urban life. Both tend to envision media as instrumental supplements to politics, overestimating the powers of ‘media’ within urban living. Drawing on recent uses of practice theory in media studies, we highlight how thinking of media-in-practices provides a basis for more nuanced conceptualizations of the powers of the media—urban nexus. Fully realizing this conceptualization requires that the restriction of the insights of practice theory to everyday life be lifted. An expanded view of media practices is required, one which emphasizes the coordination between organized fields of communication and everyday urbanized media practices.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSI would like to express my sincere gratitude to those who helped me complete this thesis:To my advisor Dr. Daniel Jenkins for his support and guidance on my studies and research. I am grateful for his immense patience through my successes and failures.To Dr. James Leary for his advice and criticisms and providing me with a challenging and enjoyable research project.To Dr. Soojin Jun for his review and suggestions over the course of the project.To Dr. James Foster and the Pacific GPS Facility for providing resources and facilities for portions of this project.To Ryan Kurasaki for assistance and advice in the mechanical design and machining of early prototypes. In an effort to improve operations, GPS and other sensors were integrated directly into the electro-pneumatic device for instantaneously recording time, origin, and trajectory of each projectile discharged. These data are transmitted wirelessly to a custom android application that displays target information in real-time both textually and on a map. The application also records data into a comma delimited file so that it can easily be recalled for map display, or exported to other software such as for conducting additional GIS analysis. The logger makes data collection a seamless part of the operation, facilitates logistics of applying airborne HBT, and improves our interpretations of operational HBT performance with more statistically robust measures of herbicide use rate and time-on-target. This provides enhanced capabilities for building operational intelligence relevant to landscape scale invasive species management.
