| Abstract | The purpose of this study is to examine the value of utilizing digital media and transmedia strategies for enriching the urban interpretive user experience of both cultural and natural landscapes and, therefore, increasing the scope of environmental educational outlets and tools. Using the case of relevant emerging projects, I would like to explore how these projects were conceived and formulated, how they have been executed thus far, and how they are strategized so as to have future, continued relevance. By reviewing these projects, I will examine how local government, grassroots organizations, and academic institutions in Los Angeles can, coordinate their efforts through digital platforms to improve the legibility, of natural and cultural landscapes and, consequently, improve the stewardship of the latter by utilizing new technologies. |
