Is the self or subject discontinuous across technological
platforms? Do technological developments increase inequality and
exploitation? Is the new media landscape creating a dangerous
distraction from the climate crisis? Connecting the work of
critical postmedia studies to Deleuze and Guattari's concept of
schizoanalysis, this book marks a bifurcatory shift in the radical
theory on technology. A range of critical perspectives are explored
by international authors who engage with ecology, ecosophy, climate
change, the postmedia condition, and the Anthropocene. Answering
the above questions, editors Joff P.N. Bradley, Alex Taek-Gwang
Lee, and Manoj N.Y. frame the volume's chapters as urgent responses
to unbridled technological advance and impending climate disaster.
Using ecological philosophy as a core focus, the volume analyses
new media, technologies of the self, the power of algorithms, and
technologies of resistance, to outline a materialist paradigm
capable of addressing crises across the cultural, biological, and
informational spheres. Through contesting economies built on desire
and destruction and questioning the infiltration of capitalism in
all of its spheres of negative influence, the editors review recent
technological developments in light of Deleuze and Guattari's
earlier seminal theories to make bold new connections and critiques
in the study of media, philosophy, and the environment.
