Peter Lunenfeld is a professor in the Design Media Arts department at UCLA. Publications include: The Secret War Between Downloading and Uploading: Tales of the Computer as Culture Machine, 2011, USER: InfoTechnoDemo (MIT, 2005), Snap to Grid: A User’s Guide to Digital Arts, Media & Cultures (MIT, 2000), and The Digital Dialectic: New Essays on New Media (MIT, 1999). Digital_Humanities, co-written with Anne Burdick, Johanna Drucker, Todd Presner, and Jeffrey Schnapp, came out in 2012 from the MIT Press. Lunenfeld is creator and editorial director of the multi-award-winning Mediawork project, a pamphlet series for the MIT Press which redefined the relationship between serious academic discourse and graphic design, and between book publishing and the World Wide Web. These “theoretical fetish objects” cover the intersections of media, art, design and technology. Lunenfeld is on the Faculty Steering Committee of UCLA’s new undergraduate minor and graduate certificate in Digital Humanities. His current research interests are taking him deeper into questions about new modes of knowledge formation that go beyond print, the design of the digital humanities, and the centrality of meaning making to networked culture. His on-going research project is in retreat from the future present. Provisionally titled City at the Edge of Forever, it is an alternative, connectionist history of Los Angeles and its cultural significance. http://www.peterlunenfeld.com
