| Summary: | This collection of art and theory analyzes today?s post-digital conditions for critical media practices?across and beyond the analog and the digital, the human and the nonhuman. The contributions also look across and beyond the field of media art, staking out new paths for understanding and working in the transversal territories between theory, technology, and art. The concept of the post-digital is a way to critically take account of, contextualize, and shift the coordinates of new technologies as part of contemporary culture. The post-digital condition is not merely a theoretical issue but also a situation that affects conceptual and practice-based work.0The program of the transmediale festival in Berlin, celebrating its thirtieth year in 2017, has reflected these changes, and this book gathers new contributions from leading international theorists and artists of media and art who have taken part in the festival program over its past five editions. Divided into the thematic sections?Imaginaries,??Interventions,? and?Ecologies,? this book is not a document of the festival itself, it is rather a stand-alone exploration of the ongoing themes of transmediale in a book format. |
