Additional Reading

Graham Meikle and Sherman Young, Media Convergence: Networked Digital Media in Everyday Life (2012), provides a good general account of media convergence. Henry Jenkins, Convergence Culture: Where New and Old Media Collide (2006), places debates about convergence in the wider context of participatory culture. Axel Bruns, Blogs, Wikipedia, Second Life, and Beyond: From Production to Produsage (2008), and Charles Leadbeater, We-Think: Mass Innovation, Not Mass Production (2008), consider the changing position of the media user in the context of convergence. Mark Deuze (ed.), Managing Media Work (2011), has a very good set of essays on how media work is changing, including Jane Singer, “Journalism in a Network.” Dwayne Winseck and Dal Yong Jin (eds.), The Political Economies of Media: The Transformation of the Global Media Industries (2011), considers the changing media industry structures, and Winseck’s introductory essay is particularly recommended. Transmedia storytelling is discussed in Carlos Scolari, “Transmedia Storytelling: Implicit Consumers, Narrative Worlds, and Branding in Contemporary Media Production,” International Journal of Communication, 3 (2009), and Neil Perryman, “Doctor Who and the Convergence of Media: A Case Study in ‘Transmedia Storytelling,’ ” Convergence, 14:21 (2008). Social media are discussed in Howard Rheingold, “Using Social Media to Teach Social Media,” New England Journal of Higher Education, 23(1):25 (2008).
