What if modernism had been characterised by evolving; interconnected and multi-sensory images ndash; rather than by the monolithic objects often described by its artists and theorists? In this groundbreaking book; Charissa Terranova unearths a forgotten narrative of modernism; which charts the influence that biology; General Systems Theory and cybernetics had on art in the twentieth century. From kinetic and interactive art to early computer art and installations spanning an entire city; she shows that the digital image was a rich and expansive artistic medium of modernism.
