recieved in its entirety without change other than to add the standard RE header and footer and enough HTML coding to present it as an HTML edition, in two files for ease of handling. --Richard Bear, May 1998.

Coding Cultures explores how a range of media technologies can enable communities to express and share their stories in innovative and imaginative ways. I am particularly interested in this intersection between people using well established processes for engaging with communities and individuals and the application of a range of information and communication technologies (ICTs) such as the web or mobile phones for example. These new technologies enable a rich participatory media culture where people can make, share and distribute their experiences.
