The third-party funded research project (led by Helena Atteneder) examines the media and mobility practices of commuters who regularly use public transport. The focus is on "smart" or "post-digital" mobility concepts that are based on the extensive collection and algorithmic exploitation of data and promise a more sustainable, efficient organization of mobility services.
The study investigates the merging of media with urban mobility infrastructure and the reordering of various spaces/places, technological components, social aspects, and media in their different emphases.
The project is funded by the Baden-Württemberg Foundation as part of the elite program for postdoctoral researchers.
