  1. Opening The Book

    The book has stayed pretty much the same for over 500 years: a bunch of paper pages between covers. It’s been both finite and easily grasped. But our digitally-connected world is forcing us to re-imagine what books could be.

    Participants in the program:

    Bob Stein, founder and co-director of The Institute For the Future of the Book, New York.

    James Bridle, writer, publisher, editor, technologist, London.

    Hugh McGuire, founder of pressbooks and libravox, co-editor of Book: A Futurist’s Manifesto, Montreal.

    Kylie Mirmohamadi, professor of English, La Trobe University, Melbourne.

    Sue Martin, professor of English, La Trobe University, Melbourne.

    Young Americans are reading more than just status updates and 140-character tweets. A new study by the Pew Research Center shows that among 16- to 29-year-olds, 8 in 10 have read a book in the past year. That’s compared with 7 in 10 among adults in general.

  5. Longform Podcast Episode 5: Paul Ford

    Aaron Lammer talks with writer and programmer Paul Ford.

    “You don’t really read a newspaper to preserve journalism, or save great journalism, or to keep the newspaper going. You read it because it gives you a sense of power or control over the environment that you’re in, and actually sort of helps you define what your personal territory is, and what the things are that matter for you. As long as products serve that need—as long as books allow you to explore spaces that it’s otherwise really hard for you to explore and so on—I think people will continue to read them.”
