Computers are developing into a powerful medium integrating film,
pictures, text and sound, and the use of computers for
communication and information is rapidly expanding. The Computer as
Medium brings insights from art, literature and theatre to bear on
computers and discusses the communicative and organizational nature
of computer networks within a historical perspective. The book
consists of three parts. The first part characterizes the semiotic
nature of computers and discusses semiotic approaches to
programming and interface design. The second part discusses
narrative and aesthetic issues of interactive fiction, information
systems and hypertext. The final part contains papers on the
cultural, organizational and historical impact of computers.The
broad and rich coverage of this book will appeal to scholars in
cognitive science, computer science, linguistics, semiotics, media
studies and mass communications, cultural studies and education.
