Hi Ross,
Interesting timing on the question of the "medium of the academy." Last Friday, I received my new 7th edition of the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers. In an attached letter, the Modern Language Association announces one of it biggest changes in years. I quote:
The seventh edition introduces student writers to a significant revision of MLA documentation style. In the past, listing the medium of publication in the works-cited list was required only for works in media other than print (e.g., publications on CD-ROM, articles in online databases); print as considered the default medium and was therefore not listed. The MLA no longer recognizes a default medium and instead calls for listing the medium of publication in every entry in the list of works cited.
Not exactly about video per se, but a larger shift due to the increased usage of online sources, no doubt.
cheers,
Brian
