Zusatztext I have read Art! Time! and Technology with permanent and increasing admiration! pleasure! and excitement. Charlie Gere's book is without any doubt a major contribution to the field of 'art and technology' (and sometimes even 'art and science') studies! which it innovates in very stimulating ways . . . one can only admire the breadth of the author's interests and the depth of his insights. Informationen zum Autor Charlie Gere is a Professor of Media Theory and History in the Lancaster Institute for Contemporary Arts, Lancaster University. He is author of Digital Culture (2002/2008), Art, Time and Technology (2006), and Community without Community in Digital Culture (2012), and co-editor of White Heat Cold Logic (2009), and Art Practice in a Digital Culture (2010). Klappentext This book explores how the practice of art, in particular of avant-garde art, keeps our relation to time, history and even our own humanity open. Examining key moments in the history of both technology and art from the beginnings of industrialisation to today, Charlie Gere explores both the making and purpose of art and how much further it can travel from the human body. Zusammenfassung Examines the role of art in an age of 'real time' information systems and instantaneous communication. This book explores how the practice of art keeps our relation to time, history and even our own humanity open. It also explores both the making and purpose of art, and how much further it can travel from the human body.
