This third year module applies elements of media theory, to complex relationships between media and the natural world. Learners investigate how media, as technologies and social practices, are bound up with human relationships with nature. There will be an interrogation of how personal and societal relationships with the living world are mediated through the senses, attention, narrative, language, economics and emotion.
