More about the book

Exploring the development of multimedia technologies, this book examines their historical, cultural, and political contexts. It delves into the origins of multimedia, highlighting the unexpected intersection of military interests and 1960s counter-culture. Key topics include the impact of media deregulation by 1980s "new right" governments, as well as contemporary concerns surrounding privacy, censorship, and the use of digital technology in film special effects. The critical analysis challenges the notion that these technologies inherently promote individualism and wealth.
