EGC 314 - The Mediasphere

This course will explore authenticity in a hegemonic media world shaped by globalization. First we will examine how corporations and politicians use media performances to instill a world-view reinforcing homogenous identity and points of view. Then we will also examine how others use their own low-tech and high-tech performances to challenge this view in different parts of the world.
