Traditional conceptualizations of audiences and producers are shifting so the very making of our social practices, spaces, and contexts in this brave new world of the World Wide Web, the work of \u003ci\u003eHomo Irretitus\u003c\/i\u003e in this intersectional space, must be interrogated. If we are to understand this space, we should approach it from varied vantage points.\u003cbr\u003e This book gathers scholars from both within and external to the core of new media studies, each of whom applies a unique theoretical perspective to the intersection of audience and production in the space enabled by emerging communications technologies. In doing so they help shed light on a variety of the tensions evident in the new digital spaces in which we create and recreate (and often produse) so much of our lives, our identities, and our selves.
