Patrick is concerned with the intellectual future of the media industry. His two recent books ask questions and suggest answers to some of the most pressing issues under discussion today. They are penetrating reads and should be required of anyone interested in the world of mass communication.

You did a wonderful job here! The analysis of the housing market collapse was terrific and the conclusion about handheld devices should be read by every parent.... You should send this to Michael Moore for his next movie.

This book ignites a conversation that has been on the tips of most millennials' tongues for quite some time. While more sensationalized tech crises have dominated the headlines, 'RockPaperPixels' shines a spotlight on uncovering a hidden menace that hides in plain sight. With its unembellished, straightforward style, this book serves as a manifesto that addresses key issues facing our society. A must-read for both digital natives and digital immigrants alike.

Investigation, Insight, and Imagination led Patrick Aievoli to the conclusion that this current generation (12-25) has been bred like veal to consume and be consumed by Interactive media. His unnerving vision is infused with irony but also with the compassionate knowledge that he brings as a teacher, a designer, and a parent. Read and reflect.
