"...discuss how digitalization/digitization changes todays places/spaces and our conceptions of those (physical, social, political, urban, hybrid, etc.). By "digitalization/digitization" I mean the empirical - material and symbolic - phenomena, not the concept (e.g. locative media-in-use, digital infrastructures, social media, etc.). Using theoretical texts, I want them to acquire knowledge on the key concepts of "space" and/or "place". How can we think space and/or place? And how can we apply such concepts in order to better understand todays digital developments in many spheres of (everday) life?" I finally put together all your suggestions and literature advices. You'll find them here: https://danielderkunzelmann.piratenpad.de/airl-space-place-lit Special thanks to Dawn Gilmore who has done a lot of the copy-and-paste work which I could use to create this list!!!
