This book is about the technological revolution, visual reproduction and distillation of images throughout mass media culture β digital control, manipulation and deception, instantaneous distribution and the erosion of privacy. It presents a volume of original essays about media and the visual environment in the digital age. The academic community is the primary audience. A number of cover directions were initially developed. With a typographic approach being selected, I wanted to convey a sense of multiplicity and omission within the pattern of type.
βAll type. Great play of colors. Subtle and beautiful.β Isabel Warren-Lynch
