Living Digital Media: Rhetorical-affective practices in circulation

Living Digital Media presents a compelling exploration of the intricate relationships between creators and their digital media productions. It emphasizes that creators are living digital media, meaning they experience a swell of emotions, from love to frustration, as they shape their creations. The core of this work animates a theory of rhetorical-affective practices, shedding light on the dynamic processes and feelings that circulate throughout a production cycle. Rather than focusing on the finished production, this book emphasizes circulation before, during, and after publication. Collaboration, revision, and delivery are framed as key areas of rhetorical practices that pulse with feelings.
