Location, location-awareness, and location data have all become
familiar and increasingly significant parts of our everyday
mobile-mediated experiences. Cultural Economies of Locative Media
examines the ways in which location-based services, such as
GPS-enabled mobile smartphones, are socially, culturally,
economically, and politically produced just as much as they are
technically designed and manufactured. Rowan Wilken explores the
complex interrelationships that mutually define new business models
and the economic factors that emerge around, and structure,
locative media services. Further, he offers readers insight into
the diverse social uses, cultures of consumption, and policy
implications of location, providing a detailed, critical account of
contemporary location-sensitive mobile data. Cultural Economies of
Locative Media delves into the ideas, technologies, contexts, and
power relationships that define this scholarship, resulting in a
rich portrait of locative media in all of its cultural and economic
complexity.
