Understanding our digital world

Our digital media research is investigating the transformation of contemporary media and communication in social contexts.

Through large-scale methodological innovation, we're examining the:

• impact of social and mobile media on communication
• transformation of cultural participation in the media
• development of new production models in the rapidly-changing media industries
• legal, policy and regulatory responses to digital media.

The knowledge we're developing contributes to other emerging research fields like transformations in journalism, trans-media studies and performance innovation, and advancing applied research in design disciplines like interactive and visual design.
