Mobile media has revolutionized the way we perceive, hear, and pay attention to the world, as well as how we navigate through cities. Over the past decade, mobile communication technologies have become an essential part of our daily lives, shaping our perception and physical experience of the world. Ingrid Richardson and Rowan Wilken's book, Bodies and Mobile Media, explores mobile media as a lens through which to understand how embodiment shapes and is shaped by media experiences. The book offers a unique approach by focusing on specific sensory affordances and body parts, such as the eyes, ears, face, hands, and feet, to consider the uneven ratios of sensory perception at work in our engagement with mobile devices.
Each chapter provides rich and accessible narratives of mobile media practices interwoven with current scholarship in media studies and phenomenology. The concluding chapter reflects on mobile media use as a synesthetic experience. By interpreting theoretical insights about the relationship between the body and technology, the book serves as an important work of knowledge translation.
The authors argue that this book is crucial for understanding how our perception and experience of the world are mediated by technology. It will be of interest to students and scholars in media, communication, and cultural studies.
