We live in an age when consumption and consuming have come to
define us. Consumption, now a global phenomenon, is so dominant it
allows little room for alternatives. At the same time, information
and digitization have become all-pervasive in our media culture .
As ever greater aspects of the world have come to be seen as
'data', information has increasingly become the very currency of
consumption.Consumption in an Age of Information maps this new
terrain. Bringing together some of the world's leading theorists
and critics, the essays range across high theory and popular
culture - from informational flows to science fiction simulations,
from pop-cultural consumption to capitalism as religion, from the
consumption of time to the role of 'speed' in contemporary culture.
