Media After Deleuze: Deleuze and Guattari Encounters

Autor David Savat, Tauel Harper
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 iul 2016
Media pervade and saturate the world around us. From the proliferation of social media, to crowdsourcing, big data, games, and more traditional media such as television, radio, and print, media provide the framework for our engagement with the world and each other. By recasting the traditional concerns of media studies through the lens of the work of Deleuze and Guattari this book provides an innovative new toolkit for understanding how media shape our world. Taking as their central question what it is that media do, Harper and Savat offer a new and insightful approach to this exciting area of study.

Recenzii

Harper and Savat revitalize Deleuze for the age of new media. The book flags the political urgency of Deleuze and Guattari's ideas . Indeed, the book's greatest strength is how it, in an accessible manner, mobilizes Deleuze's (and Guattari's) core ideas and how these can connect with the concerns of media studies.
In this long awaited book, so necessary for the field of media studies, David Savat and Tauel Harper have written a remarkably accessible text that equally balances the philosophical concepts of both Deleuze and Guattari. Concepts such as Assemblage theory, image machines, refrain, and especially the production of desire that runs through the entire book are beautifully explained and put to use in this capitalist digital age of control regarding gaming, television, news and information media, the Internet, marketing, genre theory and audience studies. Drawing on schizoanalysis, the book ends on an affirmative note as to what one should do given the challenges we all face in a media saturated environment.
A very creative and pedagogically adaptable montage of Deleuze and Guattari's key concepts through the lens of traditional media studies; more than a glossary, this work both updates and re-frames the production of contemporary media culture, making their work relevant again for media scholars.
