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

Alessandra Lopez y Royo : ReConstructing and RePresenting dance: Exploring the dance/archaeology conjunction

Timothy Webmoor : Reconfiguring the Archaeological Sensibility: mediating heritage at Teotihuacan, Mexico

Christopher Witmore : Multiple field approaches in the Mediterranean: Revisiting the Argolid Exploration Project

These are major features in our e-publication project at SOFTbooks@chiasme.com

Also from 2003 we have run blogs on all things archaeological:

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).
