Description

This selection of essays chronicles "the phenomenon of old media giving way to new, and then being replaced by them, as the ghosts of old media rise in new forms". Topics covered by the essays include: documentary film pioneer Robert Flaherty; a discussion of Holland's role in Western civilization; accounts of pioneers of camera obscura and magic lantern phantasmagoria; a history of communication breakthroughs; an examination of the foibles of media censorship; and the importance of the Indian film maker Satyajit Ray.
