Postnaturalism : Frankenstein, Film, and the Anthropotechnical Interface, Pap.... Postnaturalism : Frankenstein, Film, and the Anthropotechnical Interface, Paperback by Denson, Shane; Hansen, Mark B. N. (FRW), ISBN 3837628175, ISBN-13 9783837628173, Brand New, Free shipping in the US »Postnaturalism« offers an original account of human-technological co-evolution and argues that film and media theory, in particular, needs to be re-evaluated from the perspective of our material interfaces with a constantly changing environment. Extrapolating from Frankenstein films and the resonances they establish between a hybrid monster and the spectator hooked into the machinery of the cinema, Shane Denson engages debates in science studies and philosophy of technology to rethink histories of cinema, media, technology, and ultimately of the affective channels of our own embodiment.With a foreword by media theorist Mark B. N. Hansen.
