de Mark Slouka

Part cultural critique, part call to the ramparts, this funny, eerily disturbing, humanist's look at the culture of cyberspace suggests that more is going on there than mere on-line communication. Offering a brave new vision of the digital avant-garde, Slouka takes a hard look at this revolution-in-the-making and some of the personalities behind it. Line drawings.

Información de la editorial

Warning: A technological revolution is unfolding that promises, in the words of its creators, to redefine what it means to be human. Face-to-face communication ("F2F" to those in the know) is quickly becoming obsolete; already we turn to computers for information, entertainment, companionship--even love. Science fiction? Hardly. This is the brave new vision of the digital avant-garde, computer crusaders leading a high-tech assault on what was once known as reality. Sophisticated, well-funded, unabashedly messianic, they have the power, the technological know-how, and the marketplace savvy to make good on many of their wildest prophecies. With War of the Worlds, Mark Slouka gives us a funny, but eerily disturbing, humanist's look at the culture of cyberspace.

Primera línea

I first stumbled upon (or into) the world of virtual systems while teaching undergraduate seminars on twentieth-century culture at a major California university.
