Networked David Lynch is a multi-disciplinary reconsideration of Lynch's œuvre in the context of the challenges and opportunities offered by transmedia environments and networks of the twenty-first century. This collection builds on state-of-the-art-research concepts like video-graphic criticism and video essays to provide a fresh and important approach to any study of David Lynch's œuvre. As such, Networked David Lynch is an attractive entry point to current media theory and recent film history, appealing to cinephiles, academics, researchers, and students.

This multi-disciplinary reader provides immediate relevance to university courses focusing on modern film history and on current theory in film, television, and media studies. The scope of approaches featured in the book provides an informative basis for courses on transmedia and media convergence, sound studies, musicology, cultural studies, and American studies.
