Work In Progress

She is working on the final version of ‘Towards Book 2.0’,
The paper juxtaposes the idea of the book in the traditional academic context, as the standard medium for the storage and dissemination of academic
discourse to the latest technological manifestation of the book as ‘The Kindle’, an e-book device released by the founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos.
It considers the implications of connectivity on a new  ‘network readership’, on the publishing industry, on the relationship author-reader and
on the same idea of authorship, in the belief that bound up with the changes that the object-book undergoes are our deeply held conceptions of subjectivity and agency.
