Originaltitel:
Archäologie der Medien
Inhalt:
"Deep Time of the Media takes us on an archaeological quest into the hidden layers of media development - dynamic moments of intense activity in media design and construction that have been largely ignored in the historical-media archaeological record. Siegfried Zielinski argues that the history of the media does not proceed predictably from primitive tools to complex machinery. In Deep Time of the Media, he illuminates turning points of media history - fractures in the predictable - that help us see the new in the old."--BOOK JACKET.
