Synopsis

Today information technology began to offer us new dimensions in the creation, storage and distribution of information, however "new media" has been presented to society -by the popular press- mainly as a miracle for (direct) marketing. The book "De-constructing the Digital Revolution", explores how a new popular term ?digital revolution? has been emerged, transformed and vacuumed to satisfy rising demands for a new Utopia, right at the turn of the second millenium. The author Genco Gulan deconstruct the term, and bring examples with an interdisciplinary approach from; visual art, politics, popular culture, history and even genetics. Gulan tries to present how an anti-systemic term "revolution" could became systemic. The book De-constructing the Digital Revolution conclude that the developments in new technology should not only be sought regarding to its material(ist) reflections but also in its power for de-materialization. Hence a possible change (the next evolution) rather should be sought within in its own dynamics, through a new (electronic) theory.
