Review

"Digital Media Revisited contends that innovative work in and analysis of the digital media domain can and should lead to innovative theory, in turn informing development and cross-fertilization in culture and society. Its impressive array of international scholarship and practice-based research spans leading thinking from semiotic theory to play and interactive systems. The book emphasizes social responsibility, human-centred applications and communication, and emergent intermedia research environments (without neglecting established institutions). Altogether, Liestøl and his colleagues offer a stimulating, comprehensible and thematically coherent overview of forward-looking thinking about digital media."--Maureen Thomas, Creative Director, Cambridge University Moving Image Studio

"DIGITAL MEDIA REVISITED is a healthy upheaval in expectations about why development takes the shape it does." Book Bytes

"In bringing together an outstanding group of international and interdisciplinary authors, the editors of Digital Media Revisited outdo themselves. Each author and chapter probe crucial issues surrounding new media and, in doing so, offer fresh insights from multiple angles. A provocative and necessary read for anyone interested in our shared, digital future!" Gail E. Hawisher, Professor of English and Director of the Center for Writing Studies, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

The computer graphics world of today's movies has come a long way from the ubiquitous teapots of years past. The text only Adventure games are a long way from the Multi-User Dungeons (MUDs) of today. And the bridge of a modern ship is now a multi-media experience with radar, maps, engine controls, steering system, GPS and more are combined into displays and alarms to tell people to look at the displays.

These digital domains are what the authors call 'first encounters.' We see them; we understand them (more or less). But these are just the beginnings, and in this book twenty distinguished thinkers from Georgia Tech and Xerox PARC, Singapore and Oslo describe their thoughts on where the new innovations in digital domains are going.

This is a book for anyone interested in the digital future, perhaps as a computer scientist, perhaps as a movie maker or instrumenation designer, perhaps as an investor looking for tomorrows big play.
