Its focus is network culture. It still uses the term &#8220;book,&#8221; which is interesting, perhaps temporary, and perhaps an opening for considerations of predominating frames in discourse. Of course it is as valid to ask why not book, as much as why &#8211; taking into account that these terms are as fluid and mutable as any cultural language.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the About section quoted:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA networked book is an open book designed to be written, edited and read in a networked environment.\u201d \u2014 Institute for the Future of the Book<\/p>\n<p>In 2007, Jo-Anne Green and Helen Thorington (Co-Directors, New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc. | Turbulence.org) proposed Networked to Eduardo Navas (NewMediaFIX). Along with Sean Dockray (Telic Arts Exchange) and Anne Bray (Freewaves), they developed an application to the National Endowment for the Arts, which funded the project in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>An international Call for Proposals was issued. It defined the project\u2019s Goals and Objectives and invited contributions that critically and creatively rethink how networked art is categorized, analyzed, legitimized \u2014 and by whom \u2014 as norms of authority, trust, authenticity and legitimacy evolve. A committee of nine reviewed the submissions: four authors were commissioned to develop chapters that are now open for commentary, revision, and translation. A fifth \u2014 one of the runners-up \u2014 was invited to contribute. Networked is open to additional chapters. See Guidelines.<\/p>\n<p>Networked proposes that a history or critique of interactive and\/or participatory art must itself be interactive and\/or participatory; that the technologies used to create a work suggest new forms a \u201ctext\u201d might take.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following is from http:\/\/networkedbook.org\/ an interesting project to create collaborative articles and essays in the form of commentary, translation and revision.
