Product Description Place: Local Knowledge and New Media Practice explores tensions between global cosmopolitanism and local practices in the new media environment. This edited collection of work by practitioners and scholars emphasises political issues raised by artists working in an indigenous cultural setting. Indigenous epistemologies provide sophisticated structures for negotiating belonging among communities who may become widely dispersed from their homelands. New media, by contrast, demonstrates biases toward the the dislocated: a cosmopolitanism implicitly located in the urban, where communities form and fragment in virtual environments. Nonetheless, questions of belonging and identification remain for those of us who use new media networks. Through analysis of a range of contemporary art and film projects, and tracking recent developments in cultural theory, the book provides diverse perspectives on how longheld attachments to place are transforming in the new media context. About the Author Danny Butt is a partner at Suma Media Consulting and editor of the book Internet Governance: Asia Pacific Perspectives. Jon Bywater is Programme Leader,Critical Studies at the University of Aucklands Elam School of Fine Arts and is the New Zealand reviewer for Artforum magazine. Nova Paul is a film maker and Senior Lecturer at the School of Art and Design, AUT University.
