My RWMC is around the convergence of Television and Social Media and in particular, the rise of Twitter as a second screen while viewing television to create SocialTV. My medium for this creation has been a series of Tweets which can be viewed either through a search on Twitter, or as a visualisation through VisibleTweets.
