On Floating
Romanticism in the Digital World (Untimely Meditations)
by Alexander Pschera, Erik Butler
Paperback, 88 Pages, Published 2018 by Mit Pr
ISBN-13: 978-0-262-53581-6, ISBN: 0-262-53581-5

"In the digital realm, we float like fish. We have the sensation of being everywhere and nowhere -- or everything and nothing -- at once. We are between "no longer" and "not yet." Digital floating is addictive because it liberates us from space, time, and responsibility. But floating is at once a liberation and an endangerment: liberation from history, facts, obligations, but endangerment through the loss of identity and through a sense ..."

"In contrast, the terrestrial order rests on firm foundations. Its law is called nomos: Upon the holy lord Of men and gods I call, Heavenly Nomos, who arranges The stars and sets a fair limit Between the earth and the waters of the sea; It is his laws That ever preserve nature's balance, Obedient and steady.2 The digital order is dispelling the nomos of the earth once and for all. Carl Schmitt praised the earth for its solidity, abo ..."






The Art of Revolt(1st Edition)
Snowden, Assange, Manning (Hardback)

Hardcover, 128 Pages, Published 2017 by Stanford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-5036-0001-0, ISBN: 1-5036-0001-7

"Edward Snowden, Julian Assange, and Chelsea Manning are key figures in the struggles playing out in our democracies over internet use, state secrets, and mass surveillance in the age of terror. When not decried as traitors, they are seen as whistleblowers whose crucial revelations are meant to denounce a problem or correct an injustice. Yet, for Geoffroy de Lagasnerie, they are much more than that. Snowden, Assange, and Manning are exem ..."

"At the core of the German language are what Schottelius calls Stammwörter, or “ Root Words.” The Seeker was interested above all in the capacity of simple elements—the seeds and stock of language, as it were—to produce new words that further ornament and enrich the German literary garden. As Kathrin Gützlaff has observed, “Schottelius [räumt] der Wortbildung ... einen weitaus gröβeren Raum ein als die Grammatiker vor ihm” (Schotteli ..."

"Our competitive, service-oriented societies are taking a toll on the late-modern individual. Rather than improving life, multitasking, "user-friendly" technology, and the culture of convenience are producing disorders that range from depression to attention deficit disorder to borderline personality disorder. Byung-Chul Han interprets the spreading malaise as an inability to manage negative experiences in an age characterized by excessi ..."

"Media studies," as Kittler conceived it, meant reflecting on how books operate as films, poetry as computer science, and music as military equipment. This volume collects writings from all stages of the author's prolific career. Exemp ..."

An Intermediate State Vampyr ( 1932), by the Danish director Carl Theodor Dreyer, also exploits a vague frame of reference and shadowy modes of charac- terization to plunge viewers into another world.42 The picture was filmed simultaneously in English, French and German. Although integral prints of t ..."

"For the last three hundred years, fictions of the vampire have fed off anxieties about cultural continuity. Though commonly represented as a parasitic aggressor from without, the vampire is in fact a native of Europe, and its "metamorphoses," to quote Baudelaire, a distorted image of social transformation. Because the vampire grows strong whenever and wherever traditions weaken, its representations have multiplied with every political, ..."

"hero's sanity: Franzis, it turns out, is an inmate in an asylum run by the man he alleges is responsible for the killings, Caligari. Critics tend to follow Kracauer's assessment that the narrative frame disqualifies the criticism implied by Franzis's story. According to this interpretation, the framing narrative, which puts the young man in the asylum, transforms the film from a statement of protest into an affirmation of the statu ..."
