The Post-Mobile Society: From the Smart/Mobile to Second Offline by Hidenori Tomita (Editor)
Requirements: PDF Reader, 1.97 mb
Overview: With the spread of mobile augmented reality, it has become very difficult to consider digital space and physical space independently. In this book, the authors identify and discuss the state ‘Second Offline’ which refers to a real-world environment whose elements are augmented by virtual information and one in which individuals are constantly referring to the online world.
Second Offline is observed across a wide range of social contexts and the relationship between superimposed digital online information and physical offline information is increasingly important. This book analyses the cooperative relationship between online and offline and also examines situations where there may be a conflict between these realities. Furthermore, the authors discuss the possibility that in addition to influencing the physical space, the digital world actually causes some of the physical world to be lost.
Offering a discussion of the implications of a post-mobile society in which second offline is widespread, this edited collection will be of interest to students, scholars and practitioners working in sociology, mobile media and cultural studies more generally.
