Some essays are excellent; while others can be quite boring.By Cristobal C.The book has a selection of essays; some of them excellent (like the one by lev manovich) and others quite a bore. But the good ones are worth the price of this book; they are very ingenious; down to earth and also sensitive thoughts on the way modern technology affects our way of life; and our visual culture.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Not worth the price of admissionBy IMHO...Really all across the board; only a few essays that were insightful/worth reading. I agree with the previous reviewer on those points. Buy at your own risk!
