Rezensionen
"With this revision, editors Wendy Chun and Anna Watkins Fisher have made a major resource that much more indispensable. Ranging from media archaeology to critical discourses of race, class and technology, to close readings of net porn, this collection balances not only the old and the new, but also the specifics of media materiality and globally-conscious theoretical inquiry." -Peter Lunenfeld, Department of Design Media Arts, UCLA

"The new edition of New Media, Old Media not only expands but intensifies the bold enterprise of media history. Global in its reach, and dealing with political economy and postcolonialism, physics and environmental critique, law and war, citizen journalism and queer theory among many other topics, New Media, Old Media overturns simplistic notions of continual progress, rewriting the very concept of historical process, and making clear that media in all their variety are the very material of history. A crucial handbook for all students of media, of history, and of the challenges we will face in the future." -Sean Cubitt, Goldsmiths, University of London
