Eugene Thacker University of Minnesota Press, 2004 Electronic Mediations
Series
As biotechnology defines the new millennium, genetic codes and computer codes increasingly merge--life understood as
data, flesh rendered programmable. Where this trend will take us, and what it might mean, is what concerns Eugene
Thacker in this timely book, a penetrating look into the intersection of molecular biology and computer science in
our day and its likely ramifications for the future.

Marie-Laure Ryan, Editor University of Nebraska Press, 2004 Frontiers of Narrative Series Narratology
has been conceived from its earliest days as a project that transcends disciplines and media. The essays
gathered here address the question of how narrative migrates, mutates, and creates meaning as it is
expressed across various media.
Dividing the inquiry into five areas: face-to-face narrative, still pictures, moving pictures, music, and
digital media, Narrative across Media investigates how the intrinsic properties of the supporting medium
shape the form of narrative and affect the narrative experience. Unlike other interdisciplinary approaches
to narrative studies, all of which have tended to concentrate on narrative across language-supported fields,
this unique collection provides a much-needed analysis of how narrative operates when expressed through
visual, gestural, electronic, and musical means.
