consumption and media use, Becker et al. (2001) on media and culture in the shopping centre at
large, Becker et al. (2002) on the media shops of the centre, and Gemzöe (2004a) with method-
ological reflections on collective media ethnography.
25. John B. Thompson coined the concept ‘mediazation of culture’ to refer to the development of
media organizations: ‘By focusing on the activities and products of these organizations, and by
examining the ways in which their products have been taken up and used by the individuals who
received them, we can gain a firm hold on the cultural transformations associated with the rise of
modern societies’ (1995: 46). We use ‘mediatization’ in a similar sense, in adherence to common
usage of the term.
