A discussion on Media Nagar 03
Date: 1st February
Time: 6:00 pm
Venue: Oxford Book Store, Statesmen Building
148, Barakhamba Road, CP
New Delhi -110001
The Media Nagar Series is a Hindi publication from Sarai. It started off
as an annual publication of the Publics and Practices in the History of
Present (PPHP) project of Sarai in 2004. The work undertaken by
researchers within the project were compiled and transformed into the
Media Nagar 01. It also included contributions by others working in the
same field outside Sarai. The second in the series, Media Nagar 02,
became an independent publication of Sarai and it concentrated mainly
around the theme of Media and the City. Researchers and scholars across
the world were invited to provide with articles. Fundamentally this was
an effort to prepare a resource material for the Hindi medium
researchers, students and media practitioners.
Media Nagar 03 is focused on network culture. Its main objective is to
explore the notions of network and also to understand its functioning,
how it is formed and its impact on the social order. Besides, it has
articles on other media forms and activities such as film, music, print,
media market, legal regime, and other new media forms.
Now that Media Nagar 03 is out, it is a good time for contributors, old
and new and well wishers to gather and deliberate critically about the
shape and conception of this book along with the rest in the series.
