Open Access: Articles by me about everyday creativity, making, and digital media

No Comments

‘Open Access’ is the term used by academics to mean ‘sticking stuff on the internet so that people can read it or use it’. I’ve been sticking lots of my worky stuff on the internet for about 18 years now, and in the past I don’t think people called it ‘open access’, we just called it sticking stuff on the internet.

Nevertheless – and whatever you want to call it – I thought it might be handy to have a list of selected articles by me that can be read free online. (If you want the long list, see complete list of publications – many of the items have links). The ones listed here are relatively recent ones (since 2009) about creativity and digital media and things like that.


THIS IS THE EASY TO READ LIST

This list doesn’t contain lots of unnecessary details. But this list is followed, directly below, by a list of all the same items but with proper academic references.
