The aesthetic nature and purposes of computer culture in the
contemporary world are investigated in this book. Sean Cubitt casts
a cool eye on the claims of cybertopians, tracing the globalization
of the new medium and enquiring into its effects on subjectivity
and sociality.
Drawing on historical scholarship, philosophical aesthetics and
the literature of cyberculture, the author argues for a genuine
democracy beyond the limitations of the free market and the global
corporation. Digital arts are identified as having a vital part to
play in this process. Written in a balanced and penetrating style,
the book both conveniently summarizes a huge literature and sets a
new agenda for research and theory.
