Groove Tube: Sixties Television and the Youth Rebellion
ISBN: 9780822326458 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Critics often claim that prime-time television seemed immune--or even willfully blind--to the landmark upheavals rocking American society during the 1960s. "Groove Tube" is Aniko Bodroghkozy's rebuttal of this claim. Filled with entertaining and enlightening discussions of popular shows of the time--such as "The Monkees, The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, The Mod Squad--"this book challenges the assumption that TV programming failed to consider or engage with the decade's youth-lead societal changes.

Ambient Television: Visual Culture and Public Space
ISBN: 9780822326830 / Angielski / Twarda / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Although we tend to think of television primarily as a household fixture, TV monitors outside the home are widespread: in bars, laundromats, and stores; conveying flight arrival and departure times in airports; uniting crowds at sports events and allaying boredom in waiting rooms; and helping to pass the time in workplaces of all kinds. In "Ambient Television" Anna McCarthy explores the significance of this pervasive phenomenon, tracing the forms of conflict, commerce, and community that television generates outside the home.
