- Summary:
- The explosive development of the media in this century has resulted in abstract relations with machines and/or physically removed strangers. This phenomenon characterizes ever-larger areas of work and private life. The more abstract, and removed, information has become from everyday life, the less "real" the experience. Margaret Morse offers new ways of thinking about the possibilities and limits of "virtual practices". 52 photos.
