Constructing a BIG text

 

Finally, this third quote is from Anne Wysocki's (2005) introductory chapter for a text she co-authored with Cynthia Selfe, Geoffrey Sirc, and Johndan Johnson-Eilola:

I think we should call 'new media texts' those that have been made by composers who are aware of the range of materialities of texts and who then highlight that materiality: such composers design texts that help readers/consumers/viewers stay alert to how any such text—like its composers and readers—doesn't function independently of how it is made and in what contexts. Such composers design texts that make as overtly visible as possible the values they embody. (p. 15)
I think, therefore I am a new media text
