Description of
China and the Wireless Undertow: Media as Wave Philosophy (Technicities)
1399519735 pdf In the twenty-first century city, wireless waves constitute an imperceptible, immersive, all-encompassing environment. Nowhere is this more so than in China, where a hyperdense network of mobile media has restructured daily life. Anna Greenspan re-imagines the relationship between China and wirelessness by synthesizing contemporary media theory with modern Chinese thought. It focuses specifically on the work of three critical figures: Tan Sitong (18651898), Xiong Shili (18851968) and Mou Zongsan (19091995).
