Description: | This volume is a collection of public writings and insights of the German post-structuralist, Friedrich A. Kittler. It merges the discourse of literature, war and technology into a unified theme. His research results in a vision of the future in which the distinction between mediums is erased. John Johnston''s background combines expertise in modern literature, poststructuralist philosophy, and high technology''s production. Like Kittler, he draws on historic fact, anecdote, and literature. From this vantage point he explicates the theoretical and practical consequences of Friedrich Kittler''s insights into the social and psychological effects of the processes by which metaphor in one medium is made real by another. |
