On Interfaces as Moving Image Configurations in Space

Miriam De Rosa
Coventry University

The article focusses on artistic moving images and takes its cues from Studio Azzurro's Sensitive City (2010) to offer a reading in light of the postdigital that revolves around the concept of space-image. To do so, the author reflect upon space and place, and interrogates the environmental dynamics triggered by screen media interfaces from a phenomenological point of view.

Keywords: moving image configurations, space-image, space, place, interface.
