Yet even as the lines have grown blurred between 'new' and 'traditional' media forms, there is much to learn about the dynamics surrounding the growth and adoption of new media. \u003ci\u003eA Companion to New Media Dynamics\u003c\/i\u003e presents a state-of-the-art collection of multidisciplinary readings that examine the origins, evolution, and cultural underpinnings of the media of the digital age in terms of dynamic change. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributed by an international cast of top researchers, cultural entrepreneurs, and emerging scholars, various chapters reflect on the historical, technical, cultural, and political changes that underlie the emergence of new media, as existing patterns and assumptions are challenged by the forces of 'creative destruction' and innovation, both economic and cultural. At the same time, readings reveal how several of the familiar themes from 'old' media remain - questions of identity, sexuality, politics, relationships, and meaning. Topics explored include everything from the ownership and regulation of new media to their form and cultural uses, including questions of access, agency, and consumer co-creation. Providing a wealth of innovative insights, \u003ci\u003eA Companion to New Media Dynamics\u003c\/i\u003e is an indispensable resource to the development, current place, and future directions of new media practices within contemporary culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn Hartley\u003c\/b\u003e is John Curtin Distinguished Professor at Curtin University, Western Australia; and Professor of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies at Cardiff University, Wales.
