Scientist in need

I never had a chance to be An Artist. Wasn't born to it, see. Numbers, chemicals, forces. They were my thing. Even the inner workings of the human body if needed, or perhaps learning the odd language or three. But art? No call for studying that...

I *did* creative things, sure - was in bands, wrote a few articles, composed some good tracks, but I never *studied* creativity.

And I'm now reading a book - a fab book, it has to be said - on the origins of current attitudes to New Media, and I'm reaching for the dictionary twice a page. And then not understanding what it says.

So, can anyone recommend a book on media theory or critical theory to get me going?

(more on the book when I understand it better!)
