Co-Author of Spreadable Media: Creating Value and Meaning in a Networked Culture


Interview Starts at 17:38



The book has always been, in terms of its ideas, a highly connected media property, highly intertextual, referring to ideas in society, other works, etc. The technology has now caught up to the cultural process in a way that allows us to make those sorts of connections, but we’re not ready to make use of the capability of the technology yet. And I think that’s where so much promise is to come.
