New Media Reading Group: What is New in New Media?

Led by BCNM Director Hannah Zeavin, this reading group is for faculty, graduate students, staff, postdoctoral scholars, visiting scholars, and anyone else who wants to think about what is new in new media. We will choose readings that are parts of books or sets of articles published in the last three years that were missed, partially read, provocative, or essential to defining the field now. An opportunity for thinking together, we will meet at Beta Lounge on some Fridays this year. First round (N/A beverages included) on us. RSVP here for the series so we can estimate numbers and send you a reminder before each meeting. See you there.

RSVP for the series and make suggestions for the readings!

For the first meeting on Friday, October 23, we will be reading Digital Theory by M. Beatrice Fazi, Alexander R. Galloway, Matthew Handelman, and Leif Weatherby. Please read the introduction and then as much of the book as you are able. Access a PDF of the book here. Happy reading!
