It's odd, there doesn't seem to be a "general" text. I found an old Routledge, Cantoni and Tardini, Internet, but it's from 2006. F

Hi Johannes, This in a way is what I have to avoid, being swamped with references. I'm working with undergraduates and it's a general course. One or two references would be great. These are people who are not in theater or dance but undergraduates from various areas. There are very few if any histo

Dear Alan and all what an interesting question, I don't remember that we've discussed (or shared info and syllabi) teaching or pedogical strategies much here before, and it is a timely issue, Alan, since as you may know many of those of us who also teach are now being asked, by the universities a

Hi Alan, I don't know how much you want a foundational text versus a contemporary text. I found Annemarie Chandler and Norie Neumark's anthology *At a Distance: Precursors to Art and Activism on the Internet* useful for the "Prehistories of New Media" course I taught: https://mitpress.mit.edu/book

The local news outfit has put our vid on YouTube so positive comments and likes would be great to counter the inevitable ( I say inevitable because boy did they come out on Twitter last night -their delicate little racist feathers are clearly badly ruffled by events!) racist trolls. https://www
