Today we discussed print and digital alternative media and alternative publishing and welcomed a guest lecture about zines from Prof. Susan Thomas of Long Island University.
On Wednesday, February 15 we’ll discuss non-text media: sound, images, multimedia. Please read Pavlik pp. 79-84, Malitz, Radiohead’s ‘Rainbows’, and Elton, “Love for Labels.” Your blogging assignment is to write one reading response post.
If you did not get a copy of the Pavlik reading in class, the book is on reserve at the library’s circulation desk. You’ll need the call number:
HM851 .P38 2008
There is a preview of the Pavlik book on Google Books as well.
Slides from today are available here.
*Update* – Slides from Prof. Thomas’s talk on zines are now on the Slides page of the blog. *Second update* – the bibliography of books on zines is also now on the Slides page.
