This edition of Media-N takes shape around the theme of appropriation to examine some of the diverse strategies that contemporary electronic artists deploy while placing Òfound, sampled and stolenÓ media and information in a new or different context. Guest Editor Joshua Rosenstock has gathered essays by an international roster of practitioners, theorists and curators in order to uncover new analytic positions: Mark Amerika, Sarah Cook, Marialaura Ghidini, Steve Gibson,
Alexia Mellor, Margot Herster, Eduardo Navas, Cornelia Sollfrank, and Grant Taylor.
The publication is further enhanced with a collection of timely REVIEWS, REPORTS and PAPERS by: Andres Burbano, Salvatore Iaconesi and Oriana Persico, Andrea Polli, Julieta Aguilera Rodr’guez, Andrea Varela, and Jennifer Way.
