Media Audit: Oakleigh Train Station

Every university day, I find myself in this little corner of the universe. It can be a place of frustration, but sometimes this negativity can be transformed into constructive reflection. Que the Media Audit:

Advertising posters

Directional signs and upcoming train display. (shutter speed causes deleterious effects to LED displays)

 

LCD Display

 

Last-minute hand-written notice

 

Painted warnings and tactile studs for the vision impaired

 

Painted instructional signs

 

The fact that the openings of the bins differ depending on suitable usage. This information is indeed mediated to the public.

 

Street art

 

Informational poster

 

Warning signs

 

Emergency hotline: offering mediated communication between individuals

 

The train itself, displaying logos, instructional/warning signage, and other contextual information.
