Bolter, JD and Grusin, R. (1999). Remediation. London: The MIT Press.

I read Bolter and Grusin's Remediation a few weeks ago, and whilst the book in general was a nice solid foundation for thought, I didn't tag a lot of the pages as directly useful for this project. I did however tag this extract, I think it links into what Richard was saying in his lecture about different media coming together, the way television's changing, and the whole idea of convergence, market niches and what not. It's not very long, but worth thinking about.
