Abstract (English)

Manovich theorises on the emergence of the computer as a new medium used for web sites, digital imagery and multi-media projects. He draws upon histories of art, photography, video, cinema, telecommunications and design in his analysis of new media and its principles. The prologue uses stills from Vertov’s “Man with a Movie Camera” as a visual index for the major ideas addressed in the book. Includes index. 408 bibl. ref.
