ENG 480 Convergence Culture: Film and New Media
This course explores the social, cultural, and aesthetic aspects of media convergence, that is, the juncture and interfaces between new media and traditional ones. By closely reading key texts by writers such as Marshall McLuhan, Paul Virilio, Henry Jenkins, Manuel Castells, and Lev Manovich, we will critically examine a wide spectrum of popular media products including films, television, video games, YouTube videos, and mobile apps.
