Hello, I've been browsing this list for some time but haven't posted. I admire the work of a number of people on the list and am happy to see it running. I've been thinking lately about the relations between popular culture and internet practices. In particular, I'm interested in how youth draw on widely circulating (more global) texts while simultaneously being involved in producing these texts in, sometimes, surprisingly new ways. This interest especially came up with one youth I've been researching who is involved in building a new online game with others from different countries. I keep thinking about the different popular cultural texts he is drawing on, while he is also an active producer of culture. Anyway, I'm wondering if others on this list could point me in the direction of work that considers forms of activity of consuming and (re)producing popular culture with digital practices. My apologies if this is old ground on the list. Kevin -- Kevin Leander, Ph.D. Vanderbilt University http://www.vanderbilt.edu/litspace
