The iPhone represents an important moment in both the short history
of mobile media and the long history of cultural technologies. Like
the Walkman of the 1980s, it marks a juncture in which notions
about identity, individualism, lifestyle and sociality require
rearticulation. this book explores not only the iPhone's particular
characteristics, uses and "affects," but also how the "iPhone
moment" functions as a barometer for broader patterns of change. In
the iPhone moment, this study considers the convergent trajectories
in the evolution of digital and mobile culture, and their
implications for future scholarship. Through the lens of the
iPhone-as a symbol, culture and a set of material practices around
contemporary convergent mobile media-the essays collected here
explore the most productive theoretical and methodological
approaches for grasping media practice, consumer culture and
networked communication in the twenty-first century.
