Abstract or Description
Today’s digital society functions with principles and innovation developed at research labs around the world over the past 50 years. So called media labs have entered a phase of redefinition and soul searching. There is a concurrent proliferation of labs that parallel a broader take up of technological practice. They can be industry labs, art labs, university labs or labs embedded in local communities. While the notion of a media lab can be conveyed in one word, there is not a single definition of what constitutes a media laboratory. Meanwhile, with the rapid democratisation of technology, the social relevance and purpose of the media lab has shifted away from a purely technological focus to a societal one.
