Posthumanities - Living Books

POLL

• Academics need to experiment more with digital tools and practices

• We still need authorship in academia• A book can also be a wiki• Piracy and plagiarism must remain taboo• Access is more important than reuse• Academics need to reflect more on their

own publishing practices

Discussion Points

• Can a wiki be a book?• Do living books form a challenge to our current

authorship functions?• Are their any inhibitions to editing a living or

liquid book?• What would re-use of materials in the humanities

entail?• Does open access challenge our notions of

copyright? • Do we need copyright in the humanities?
