Aesthetics of Urban Media Façades
Gavin Sade: Aesthetics of Urban Media Façades
Part of Paper Session 3: Critical Perspectives and Urban Curation
Abstract: This paper sets out to develop and extend current literature on design practices for ambient media façades. It does this by bringing together theories of ambient media, computational aesthetics, and urban aesthetics. This unique theoretical combination has informed the design of several exemplars produced by the author, which are discussed as case studies.
