Latin American Identity in Online Cultural Production

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume provides an innovative and timely approach to a fast growing, yet still under-studied field in Latin American cultural production: online digital culture. It focuses on the transformations or continuations that cultural products and practices such as hypermedia fictions, net.art and online performance art, as well as blogs, films, databases and other genre-defying web-based projects, perform with respect to Latin American(ist) discourses.
