Steve Tomasula: The Art and Science of New Media Fiction (Hardcover)

Steve Tomasula's work exists both at the cutting edges of scientific knowledge and literarytechniques. As such, it demands the work of critics who can guide the reader through the formal innovations and multimedia involutions while providing critical scientific, aesthetic, historical, and technical contexts within which his work must be read if it is to be understood. This book, the first of its kind, provides these critical contexts, bringing readers into the rich worlds Tomasula constructs and showing them just why these worlds matter so much.Steve Tomasula's work is redefining the form of the novel, reinventing the practice of reading, and wrestling with the most urgent questions raised by massive transformations of media and biotechnologies. His work not only charts these changes, it formulates the problems that we have making meaning in our radically changing technological contexts. Vast in scope, inventive in form, and intimate in voice, his novels, short stories, and essays are read and taught by a surprisingly diverse array of scholars in fields ranging from contemporary experimental writing and literary criticism to the history of science, biotechnology and bioart, book studies, and digital humanities.
