\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFascinating. Narrated by our resident alien queen from the future, Tilda Swinton, in her crisp, otherworldly voice. Dense, playful, philosophical and poetic.\u00a0 Beautifully structured.\u00a0 An entertaining visual feast.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Dustin Chang, Twitch<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOriginal animations are seamlessly integrated with the wealth of delightful stock footage. A repository of striking images from the proverbial dream factory.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u2013 Christopher Gray, Slant<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe ethereal essay provides a bounty of poetry, in the form of a measured narration by international treasure Tilda Swinton. Thrilling. The meticulously chosen clips are often hypnotic, but the instinctual narration is what grips the viewer. The charismatic Swinton\u2026 is game for delicacy or comedy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Nick Allen, Rogerebert.com<\/i><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cA marvelous essay film. (The filmmakers) rewind a century of footage, revealing our mania for technology is nothing new. Bombards the senses with a thorough and clever montage of found footage from the 1890s to the pre-war era. The film\u2019s disorienting trip down the rabbit hole is steered in droll fashion, by narration read by Tilda Swinton\u2026 (The filmmakers) create a heady haze with their choice of clips\u2026 Dziga Vertov, William Cameron Menzies, Alice Guy-Blach\u00e9, Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton all make an appearance.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013Jordan Hoffman, The Guardian<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPlayful and provocative. A time-warped essay film recontextualizing dusty old technologies as the Miracle of Now. The script prefers evocation over prosaic storytelling.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Luksch, M.; Patel, M. (2020) \u2018To Be Connected: Perspectives on Autonomy and Risk from the Electric Age<\/b>\u2019. Chapman, A.,Hume, N., Newland, C., eds. Coding and Representation from the Nineteenth Century to the Present: Scrambled Messages.<\/i> Routledge (forth-coming)<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking as a point of departure the montage film Dreams Rewired<\/i> (Luksch, Reinhart, Tode, 2015) and its archival source material, which ranges from newsreels and scientific recordings to the first dramatic works, this illustrated chapter offers a historical perspective on urgent issues in current network and information politics. Such dominant modes of the contemporary as the striving for simultaneity and ubiquity, the enclosure of the media commons, the pursuit of efficiency in personal, domestic, corporate and public spheres, and the whitewashing of the material, energy and labour costs of technological advance, were all prefigured in the Electric Age, in the decades around 1900. Early cinema mediated and amplified the radical transformations and utopian promise of the times. This text employs visions from the Electric Age to illuminate specific present-day concerns, including the battle over \u2018net neutrality\u2019, the extension of state and corporate control to synthetic space via \u2018smart\u2019 homes and cities and the \u2018Internet of Things\u2019, aerial dominance through autonomous weapon systems, and the establishment of a regime of surveillance capitalism based on behavioural nudging. \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Advancing a new thesis and drawing on historical film footage from the 1890s to the 1930s that was collected for the film\u00a0Dreams Rewired<\/i>, Manu Luksch overturns the established precedence of cinema over television, and instead describes how in the public perception, recorded media (the archive) and transmission media (the networks) became conflated. In this essay Luksch describes the forces and constraints that determined access to source material during the making of\u00a0Dreams Rewired<\/i>, and suggests that one might draw useful analogies between, on the one hand, her struggles to obtain this source material, and on the<\/span>
\n<\/span>other, struggles over ownership and control of data in an user-generated archive.<\/span><\/p>\n
