Tracing Tempor(e)alities in the Age of Media Mobility

Résumé

New forms of tempor(e)alities coemerge with the geospatial aspect in media mobility. Though mobile devices predominantly communicate by the visual interface, on its technologically operative level it is rather akin to radio in terms of the electromagnetic spectrum, and to the binary alphabet of algorithmicized codes. The media-archaeological approach to geospatial "memory" therefore analyzes data transfer from distributed storage agencies and interactive "online"-citizenship. Geospatial media analysis (navigation, mobility, orientation) is necessarily accompanied by micro-temporal analytics. Digital communication of cultural memory transforms from the traditionally space-based archives (its "tectonics") into dynamic updating in high frequency steps; site-specific memory is substituted by media-specific storage, recall and transfer. Symbolic urban cityscapes become a phenomenal function of underlying media infrastructures which take place at the emptiness left by former cultural and collective memory.
