This collection of essays argues that it was McLuhan's confrontation of the bios that was the distinguishing feature of his media theory and the source of its most consistent problematic. Holding that media were extensions of the human, McLuhan also posited that the human was a product of technology. Remediating McLuhan ranges over media theory, art history, bio-technology and deep history in addressing this problematic, and discusses McLuhan in the context of Flusser and Turing, Carl Woese and Daniel Lord Smail. 410 0$aRecursions: theories of media, materiality, and cultural techniques. 606 $aCritical theory 606 $aMass media criticism 606 $aMass media and culture 610 $aMcLuhan. 610 $abiomediation. 610 $amedia theory. 615 0$aCritical theory. 615 0$aMass media criticism. 615 0$aMass media and culture. 676 $a302.23092 700 $aCavell$b Richard$f1949-$0965224 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148794103321 996 $aRemediating McLuhan$92785754 997 $aUNINA
