Texts

WordPerfect: Literacy in the Computer Age, by Myron Tuman.

Hypertext 2.0: The Convergence of Contemporary Critical Theory and Technology, by George P. Landow. NOTE: This book was unavailable at the time I ordered our course materials. You will need to purchase a copy of this text somewhere other than the campus bookstore. I suggest Amazon on-line.
The Second Media Age,by Mark Poster.

The War of Desire and Technology at the Close of the Mechanical Age,by Allucquere Rosanne Stone.

Escape Velocity: Cyberculture at the Turn of the Century, by Mark Dery.

A packet of articles will be available for you next week. There will also be a number of online readings.
