Soundings a journal of politics and culture

Issue 5 Spring 1997

Media Worlds

Bill Schwarz and David Morley (editors)

Soundings 5 coverThis issue explores the cultures of the contemporary media industries, taking a cool look at the current explosion and diversification of new media forms. It focuses on the relations between new media and popular experience - assessing where commercial cultures and new technologies offer something genuinely exciting, and where there is more hype than innovation.
