dc.description.abstractThe use of mobile information and communication devices has spread rapidly into all aspects of public life, frequently bringing about situations of tension due to conflicting norms and expectations among users of public space. Although some studies have investigated the interactions between public space and ICT use, most of them approach spatial contexts in an undifferentiated and absolute way. In contrast, by focusing on atmospheres in public settings and by engaging a relational approach, this study shows the dynamic and shifting ways ICT behaviour unfolds in public networks where atmospheres bring humans, activities and materials together in unique assemblages. This study draws on a qualitative diary-interview research in which Dutch respondents reported and reflected upon their own ICT experiences in specific space-time situations.
