Foundational study of how knowledge emerges through layered mediation in museum environments, analysing how objects, media, and bodily movement shape experience and learning in exhibition spaces.

It is imperative to develop an understanding which is sensitive to the shifting configurations which visitors participate in, to develop an understanding of the subject-object constellation which is sensitive to fluidity, overlap, shift and multiplicity, and to do so in a manner which is not socially or technically determinist in nature.
