New media is becoming integral to our lives. But for how long can
we refer to emerging media as new in this fast-moving digital age?
What makes it 'new'? And what problems do interactive media create
for us, as cultural beings? This book investigates the culture and
context of new media. Exploring and critiquing debates drawn from
media and cultural theory, Fuery clearly explores and defines the
concepts of new media and interactivity. With a clear and
structured approach, the book questions existing ideas about
digital culture and explains the problems that emerging
technologies can present to our culture, from issues of
surveillance and power to the digitalisation of the body. In
particular, the book includes: * a variety of perspectives and
approaches to the idea of the 'new' * consideration and evaluation
of work from key media theorists, from Foucault to Bourdieu *
relevant and innovative examples that bring the complexities of new
media to life * a glossary for quick reference and explanation of
complex concepts New Media: Culture and Image interrogates the key
concepts, models and approaches surrounding the formation and
evolution of new media. It will encourage all students of Cultural
Studies and Media Studies to question and reconsider their ideas
about media and cultural theory.
