From films and television to apps and videogames, it holds together a multitude of media and shapes the way they are accessed, organised, created, consumed, and manipulated. However, it does not do so without leaving viscous traces, and \u003cem\u003eGooey Media: Screen Entertainment and the Graphic User Interface\u003c\/em\u003e examines this residue and its consequences, revealing how the GUI exerts a powerful influence on contemporary media.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFocusing on aesthetics and adopting a media agnostic approach, Jones explores cinema, streaming platforms, television, user-generated content, videogames, apps, virtual reality, VFX, design software, and more in order to show how they cross-pollinate with one another and with our desktop interfaces. The result is a new approach for analysing convergent media in the digital era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nick Jones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1399522760\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399522762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/03\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2024","brand":"Nick Jones","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44302217543935,"sku":"9781399522762","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1647d333-f7ab-4d3c-b95f-f3b7c37b693a.jpg?v=1695160199","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gooey-media-nick-jones-9781399522762","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
