Reviews"An exceptional, even visionary mind." Leonardo Digital Reviews "If Walter Benjamin had one true intellectual descendant who extended his inquiries into the second half of the twentieth century, this must be Paul Virilio." Lev Manovich, author of The Language of New Media "Virilio is an impressive commentator on the conditioning power of the mass media ... He flits from image to image like a poet and usually builds to a profound climax."

SynopsisArt used to be an engagement between the artist and materials, but now as art practices and mediums have changed, these materials have also changed. Where art used to talk of the aesthetics of disappearance, it must now confront the disappearance of the aesthetic. In the twenty-first century, the new battleground is art as light versus art as matter. In this work, author Paul Virilio argues that this change reflects how speed and politics have been transformed to speed and mass culture.
