"William Blake's work demonstrates two tendencies that are central to social media:
collaboration and participation. Not only does Blake cite and adapt the work of earlier
authors and visual artists, but contemporary authors, musicians, and filmmakers feel
compelled to use Blake in their own creative acts. This book identifies and examines
Blake's work as a social and participatory network, a phenomenon described as zoamorphosis,
which encourages -- even demands -- that others take up Blake's creative mission.
The authors rexamine the history of the digital humanities in relation to the study
and dissemination of Blake's work: from alternatives to traditional forms of archiving
embodied by Blake's citation on Twitter and Blakean remixes on YouTube, smartmobs
using Blake's name as an inspiration to protest the 2004 Republican National Convention,
and students crowdsourcing reading and instruction in digital classrooms to better
understand and participate in Blake's world. The book also includes a consideration
of Blakean motifs that have created artistic networks in music, literature, and film
in the twentieth and the twenty-first centuries, showing how Blake is an ideal exemplar
for understanding creativity in the digital age."--Publisher's website
