With an introduction by Hubertus von Amelunxen Media philosopher
Vilem Flusser proposed a revolutionary new way of thinking about
photography. An analysis of the medium in terms of aesthetics,
science and politics provided him with new ways of understanding
both the cultural crises of the past and the new social forms
nascent within them. Flusser showed how the transformation of
textual into visual culture (from the linearity of history into the
two-dimensionality of magic) and of industrial into post-industrial
society (from work into leisure) went hand in hand, and how
photography allows us to read and interpret these changes with
particular clarity.
