The Digital Media Handbook deals with the essential diversity of digital media by combining critical commentary and descriptive and historical accounts with a series of edited interviews and discussions with professional media practitioners, including producers, developers, curators, and artists. It provides an understanding of the historical and theoretical development of digital media, emphasizing the complex continuities in the technological developments associated with particular cultural uses of media as well as the emergence of new forms of communication in networked culture. The handbook focuses on key concerns of practitioners, how they develop projects, and the contexts in which they work. The interviews give a rich account of contemporary preoccupations and concerns and how practitioners are thinking about and actually solving particular problems.
