[Commlist] New book: Space in the Image: Perspectives on Experiencing Urban Space Through Digital Media

Intellect is pleased to share that /Space in the Image: Perspectives on 
Experiencing Urban Space Through Digital Media 
<https://www.intellectbooks.com/space-in-the-image>/, edited by LJ Theo, 
Gul Kacmaz Erk and June Jordaan, is out in hardback and e-book.

A reflection on the dynamic interplay between spatial experience and its 
representations in cinema and photography. /Space in the Image/ focuses 
on cinematic and photographic portrayals of the built environment, from 
individual buildings to entire cities. It addresses a timely and 
relevant topic, reflecting the prominence of urbanization and the 
widespread use of digital audiovisual media in architecture, planning, 
and design. Bringing together scholars and practitioners working at the 
intersection of architecture, urbanism, and digital media, the volume 
engages with both contemporary practice and current debates in the field.

In light of the growing ubiquity of media platforms and the immediacy of 
digital representation, the contributors critically examine the evolving 
relationship between spatial experience and its mediated forms. These 
inquiries are situated within the broader context of accelerating 
urbanization, making the book timely for architects, urban designers, 
planners, and media theorists alike. Rather than treating images as 
static records of the past, the volume interrogates their role as active 
participants in shaping contemporary urban life, identity, and memory.
