Thanks Mararetha for these questions that have been looming in the back of my mind as well. I am traveling but have been captivated by the thoughtful responses and thrilled that our subscribers Norie and Melinda chimed in last week from Australia. My experiences
in China this past week I hope to share with you—after I recover from jet lag —but please know to all of you what an engaging beginning this topic has been. Cross-species communication theoretically and practically thinking through eco-consciousness and networked
culture has resonances far and wide not only in the west but also the east. Hope to hear what you all have to say.

I often find myself frustrated by theories and descriptions of cross-species communication that fit a 20th-century/ early cybernetics model of information (aka Claude Shannon's flawed model that elides the meanings of transmission and of communication, establishes
information as quantifiable and able to lose its materiality).<br>
<br>
I'm wondering -- Benjamin and Julie especially, and Elaine & others may pitch in as well -- if your work with media and animals has led you to new understandings of communication, and what theorists you look to back up your experiences and ideas.<br>
