Update: Second Video Vortex Reader

As most of you know the INC is in the process of producing the second Video Vortex Reader

We are pleased to announce that the Reader is well into the copy-editing phase of production.

The Reader will be launched March 2011 at the upcoming Video Vortex 6 event in Amsterdam. We hope you can join us.

As with the first VV Reader, the second will be available in printed book form, as well as a free pdf download from our Reader page.
