| Reader for the Digital Work seminar

|
| |
|
| This set of links and references is intended to provide a small set of resources as a Reader for the Digital Work seminar. Whilst the seminar has an emphasis on digital work in the so-called culture industries such as media design, we also need to see it as being made up of many different kinds of work involving materials, ideas, technologies and organisational and economic forms. This reader therefore, begins to make a map of the lifecycle of a digital object a set of pointer to these formations.
