Melbourne Central and all the Media

After our lecture we were asked to go out into the aether and look at all the media. At Melbourne Central we noticed that almost any kind of conventional media was represented, radio, television and print advertising as well as many pieces of signage that both depicted various aspects of the shopping centre and guided people around the centre. After collating our results we found a diverse range of not only media forms but also display media, different ways in which that media was consumed.

  • A billboard on the exterior of the building itself
  • Infographics for guides on signs
