In many practice-based art texts and classrooms, technology is divorced from the socio-political concerns of those using it. Although there are many resources for media theorists, practice-based students sometimes find it difficult to engage with a text that fails to relate theoretical concerns to the act of creating. \u003cem\u003eNet Works\u003c\/em\u003e strives to fill that gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing websites as case studies, each chapter introduces a different style of web project--from formalist play to social activism to data visualization--and then includes the artists' or entrepreneurs' reflections on the particular challenges and outcomes of developing that web project. Scholarly introductions to each section apply a theoretical frame for the projects. A companion website offers further resources for hands-on learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombining practical skills for web authoring with critical perspectives on the web, \u003cem\u003e Net Works\u003c\/em\u003e is ideal for courses in new media design, art, communication, critical studies, media and technology, or popular digital\/internet culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Xtine Burrough\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415882214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415882217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2012","brand":"Xtine Burrough","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064969539839,"sku":"9780415882217","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5f4e4703-1c81-4f26-9914-5b7da0c301cd.jpg?v=1768672260","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/net-works-xtine-burrough-9780415882217","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
