Review of Vertov, Snow, Farocki: Machine Vision and the Posthuman

Daniel Binns

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Tomas' book implies that cinematic representation is no longer separate from the thing it represents. Bazin and Kracauer's ultimate dream of cinema becomes a nightmare even Baudrillard may struggle to comprehend. Tomas' book, though, presents these ideas in a measured way, precisely and deliberately considering his key examples.
