Description
This collection of essays explores the intersection of media and cultural studies, cultural geography, and anthropology. Spanning a decade, it examines key debates in these fields and offers critical perspectives on the emergence of new media.
Divided into five thematic sections, the book surveys the role of art-based discourses in shaping our understanding of media and culture, as well as the significance of technology and its impact on media studies. It also raises questions about the place of magic in modern forms of techno-modernity.
A valuable resource for those studying media and cultural studies, this book provides a thought-provoking analysis of the current state of these disciplines and their future directions.
