Descripció:
Published in 1970, <i>Expanded Cinema</i> was the first book to capture the explosion of video, computers, and holography as filmmaking technologies, inaugurating media arts as an artistic and scholarly discipline. The introductory essay by R. Buckminster Fuller established an encompassing 1960s countercultural context. The new Introduction of the 50th anniversary edition brings <i>Expanded Cinema</i> into the twenty-first century by exploring the social, cultural, and political implications of today’s expanded cinema technologies.
