‚Producing places‘ is a twofold topic. It can refer to places as sites that produce something, that are productive, that have operations unfold, or actions happen, or objects emerge. Likewise, it can refer to the fabrication of places as specific entities themselves. With the extended availability and practicability of digital positioning, locating and tracking systems, it has become most evident that places are not just there, but that they are generated, that they are subject to media technological operations and effects. And as such, they are fabricated themselves, they are not only active in production, but subject to production. So with the question of producing places, a media theoretical challenge has come up that needs to be tackled.
