The idea of place and how it plays into remediation is a concept that I hadn't really thought of. After reading this section though it makes sense. Whether it be a mall or an amusement park the place really plays into the idea of remediation. Real life towns or cities like the ones we live in are media spaces. It is fascinating to think that even Clemson is a media space, but it is true. The real question becomes to people get the same sense of place out of normal towns and citites as they do out of places like Disney World? When you think of cities like New York you can't help but wonder that it is like an amusement park to some people. SO much going on and so many different venues to visit, you definatly get a sense of place. I believe that the sense of place doesn't really depend on the place as much as it depends on the person visiting that place.
