Abstract
At the end of the 1990s and the beginning of the 2000s, the city of Manchester was gripped by the promise that the much heralded knowledge economy might hold the key to the transformation of its fortunes as a post-industrial city. Emboldened by its own history as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, aware of the role the city had played in the development of modern computing, and drawing on the (in)famous music scene that had emerged in the 1980s and 90s, perhaps the greatest excitement revolved around the idea that Manchester might be developed as a hub for an emerging new media economy.
