Claire Taylor

Place and Politics in Latin American Digital Culture

Location and Latin American Net Art

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume explores one of the central issues that has been debated in internet studies in recent years: locality, and the extent to which cultural production online can be embedded in a specific place. The particular focus of the book is on the practices of net artists in Latin America, and how their work interrogates some of the central place-based concerns of Latin(o) American identity through their on- and offline cultural practice.
