a| "The American artist and filmmaker James Benning focuses on the ambivalence that exists between technical progress and the promise of liberty in a culture still bound to its pioneering spirit. His work resonates with a critique of the information society and also an examination of recent US history: specifically of philosopher Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) and mathematician Theodor Kaczynski (*1942). Between 1978 and 1995 the latter became know as the 'Unabomber'. All in all the publication shows the importance of this director's themes, his work so seemingly timeless, for our life today, shaped as it is by technical possibilities both positive and negative. Including texts by Diedrich Diederichsen, Tanja Vrvilo and a conversation between James Benning and Allan MacInnis."--Inside front cover.
