Media Matters in Landscape Architecture (Applied Research & Design, 2025) goes

behind the scenes to consider how media technologies that have emerged

in recent decades are shaping the practices of artists, designers,

engineers, and scientists. The media infrastructure of climate science

and Earth remote sensing, coupled with the increased availability of
