Kriss Ravetto-Biagioli

Recenzje

In the digital age everything needs to be updated, and Ravetto-Biagioli tells us how. What we used to fear should no longer scare us, what we used to deem paranoid is now reasonable, and even our most cherished memories are no longer safe. Digital Uncanny reveals how new techno-psycho assemblages have cut much deeper than Freud, Lacan, and Kittler ever imagined. By revealing previously undisclosed connections between the histories of art, technology and psychoanalysis, Ravetto-Biagioli offers a new testament to how the most natural has become the most uncanny.
