These papers are based on an ARC Linkage grant on the use of large screens as communication platforms for an experimental transnational public sphere. The projects involved linking screens in Mebourne and Seoul for three ‘urban media events – “SMS_Origin” and “<Value>”; “Hello” and “Dance Battle (which include Northbridge, WA). We argue through these experiments that large screens situated in public space in metropolitan centres offer strategic leverage for understanding the potential for networked media to form a public sphere.
