They are a venue for creating new  visual experiences and engaging cultures, as much as they might further  the agendas of consumer culture.<\/p>\n<p>Urban screens are a worldwide phenomenon. Once found only in large  cities, they now appear in most urban centres. Their digital moving  images can contribute to a lively urban society and global community  building. But how do urban screens positively engage audiences and  contribute to the experience of a civil society? What do they actually  contribute to the character of their urban surroundings, and what is  their potential for interaction and creating personal or shared  experiences?<\/p>\n<p>This presentation The Growing Global Phenomenon of Urban Screens will  look at crucial issues such as rethinking content, ownership,  infrastructure and the careful integration in the urban environment.  International examples showcased in past Urban Screens and Media Facades  festivals will be shared as experiments in this field of urban digital  culture.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>About Mirjam Struppek<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nWriting about the growing phenomenon of urban screens around the world, Berlin-based urban media researcher Mirjam Struppek states content driven urban screens hold the potential for &#8220;building community, sharing experiences, and ultimately, facilitating exchange within our diverse urban societies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Struppek works internationally as an urbanist, researcher and curator, and is the founder of the International Urban Screens Association <a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanscreensassoc.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.urbanscreensassoc.org<\/a> and co-initiator of the Media Facades Festivals 2008\/2010.
