Two Bits in Interview Form

For those of you who’d like to know more about my book, but want it presented in a more convenient question and answer form, the media theorist and activist Geert Lovink just posted an email interview he did with me. It has some of the best questions I’ve been asked, and it means I’m in good company amongst the other interviewees. The original is on Geert’s site, Networked Cultures. I will also be making a few changes to my profile page, which the attentive reader might glean from this interview, also re-posted at twobits.net

  1. Chris, KC showed me a different version of the interview yesterday, calling attention to the address change evoked therein. Congratulations to you on the interview and on your wonderful new opportunity out west. UCLA has had a banner year recruiting talented young associate professors. Jason
