The new issue of Leonardo Electronic Almanac is published
As Editor in Chief of the Leonardo Electronic Almanac, I am very happy to present the first of the LEA Special Volumes done in collaboration with Prof. Simon Penny. DAC09: After Media: Embodiment and Context was generated from the conference by the same name that Prof. Penny chaired at the end of 2009.
The collaboration with Prof. Simon Penny has offered the opportunity to create a special volume that collates the contemporary developments in the fields of new media and digital art culture.
I am very grateful to the authors in this volume who will provide the reader with an insight in current research and possible future developments in contemporary interdisciplinary fields. DAC09: After Media: Embodiment and Context is a seminal volume that introduces innovative perspectives and presents new conceptualizations and artistic approaches.
