We're experiencing a time when digital technologies and advances in
artificial intelligence, robotics, and big data are redefining what
it means to be human. How do these advancements affect contemporary
media and music? This collection traces how media, with a focus on
sound and image, engages with these new technologies. It bridges
the gap between science and the humanities by pairing humanists'
close readings of contemporary media with scientists' discussions
of the science and math that inform them. This text includes
contributions by established and emerging scholars performing
across-the-aisle research on new technologies, exploring topics
such as facial and gait recognition; EEG and audiovisual materials;
surveillance; and sound and images in relation to questions of
sexual identity, race, ethnicity, disability, and class and
includes examples from a range of films and TV shows including
Blade Runner, Black Mirror, Mr. Robot, Morgan, Ex Machina, and
Westworld. Through a variety of critical, theoretical,
proprioceptive, and speculative lenses, the collection facilitates
interdisciplinary thinking and collaboration and provides readers
with ways of responding to these new technologies.
