Item description from seller

Neuware - Media Environments: Using Movies and Texts to Critique Media and Society uses popular film as a gateway to critical readings, encouraging students to think creatively and critically about media, society, technology, and popular culture. The text explores media in their totality and provides models and theories for interrogating many universal themes that span media, technology, and planetary civilization. Using popular films about media as lead-ins, students are introduced to the works of well-known thinkers and writers such as Marshall McLuhan, Charlton D. McIlwain, Shoshanna Zuboff, Julia Hildebrand, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Devon Powers, Antonio Lopez, and many others. Chapters span interconnected topics, including: MemesCapitalism and ConsumerismScience and Our Place in the UniverseNetworksFreedom and ProtestPseudoscience and ConspiracySpectacleEcology and the AnthropoceneCelebrity and Superheroes HyperrealitySocial-Mobile MediaNew Concepts of Hot and Cool Media The fourth edition features 19 new readings that explore Afrofuturism in Black Panther, Avatar and global media ecosystems, Hollywood and climate change, Blade Runner 2049 and future earth scenarios, Avengers and environmental advocacy, #BlackLivesMatter and Black movements in digital culture, and the International Dark Sky movement as a radical media-tech philosophy. Intellectually rigorous and thematically diverse, Media Environments is ideal for courses and programs in media and/or communication studies.…
