The Complexity of Mediating Sacred Experience in Contemporary Audiovisual Culture

This study examines the complexity of mediating the sacred experience in contemporary audiovisual culture. It integrates approaches from theology, media studies, visual psychology, and cultural semiotics to analyse how liturgical rhythm, symbolic depth, and ritual temporality are transformed in televised and digital broadcasts. The article highlights the importance of ethical visual moderation, theological sensitivity, and collaboration between media professionals and church representatives to avoid trivialisation or aesthetic distortion of the sacred.
