mobile media gadgets of the analog age  

Definición

  • As a cultural practice, the “mobile” use of media technologies has developed alongside the growing individualization and mobilization of consumer societies during the second half of the twentieth century and in connection with analog media gadgets, such as the portable radio or the cassette recorder. Being mobile did not refer only to a physical movement but also to the potential use of portables “anytime, anywhere,” that is, without the need of location-bound wires or connections.
