Metamedia is a publishing environment.
With new media transcoding analogue publication, all publication will increasingly reside in digital form. Anticipating this shift, we explore the implications of all kinds of digital authorship and publication - pdf, multimedia, wikis, blogs (image, text, video), hypertext, mashups - to augment the collegial ideal of rapid and free distribution of ideas.
Here are some highlights:
Matt Edgeworth: Acts of Discovery
Christine Finn : Jacquetta Hawkes
Cornelius Holtorf : The Portrayal of Archaeology in Contemporary Popular Culture
Timothy Webmoor : Reconfiguring the Archaeological Sensibility: mediating heritage at Teotihuacan, Mexico (digitally designed dissertation)
Christopher Witmore : Multiple field approaches in the Mediterranean: Revisiting the Argolid Exploration Project (digitally designed dissertation)
These are major features in our e-publication project at SOFTbooks@chiasme.com
Also from 2003 we have run blogs on all things archaeological:

Archaeographer - Michael Shanks' Weblog
In addition the editorial boards of the journals Archaeological Dialogues (Cambridge University Press) and Journal of Mediterranean Archaeology (Equinox) are hosted by the Metamedia wiki (both are password protected).
