"The Little Database is an incredibly powerful intervention into twenty-first-century experimental poetics and avant-garde media practices. Its an absolute delight to read Daniel Scott Snelsons critical engagement with digital media as a literary and artistic form. His sociopoetical method provides an exciting approach that goes beyond both close reading and large-scale computational data analysis." - Stephanie Boluk, coauthor of Metagaming: Playing, Competing, Spectating, Cheating, Trading, Making, and Breaking Videogames
"With an extraordinary eye for detail, Daniel Scott Snelson opens up the space between big data and close reading, leveraging the signification of media in its most capacious sense: materiality, file format, distribution network, platform, infrastructure, community. The results dazzle with eye-opening insight, astonish with breathtaking interpretive acrobatics, and invite with the infectious delight of discovering how many vast worlds lodge within the little." - Craig Dworkin, author of Dictionary Poetics: Toward a Radical Lexicography
