Conclusion. 330 $aThis book shows that screens don?t just distribute the visible and the invisible, but have always mediated our body's relationships with the physical and anthropological-cultural environment. By combining a series of historical-genealogical reconstructions going back to prehistoric times with the analysis of present and near-future technologies, the authors show that screens have always incorporated not only the hiding/showing functions but also the protecting/exposing ones, as the Covid-19 pandemic retaught us. The intertwining of these functions allows the authors to criticize the mainstream ideas of images as inseparable from screens, of words as opposed to images, and of what they call ?Transparency 2.0? ideology, which currently dominates our socio-political life. Moreover, they show how wearable technologies don?t approximate us to a presumed disappearance of screens but seem to draw a circular pathway back to using our bodies as screens. This raises new relational, ethical, and political questions, which this book helps to illuminate. 606 $aMotion pictures$xAesthetics 606 $aEthnology 606 $aContinental philosophy 606 $aDigital humanities 606 $aFilm Philosophy 606 $aSociocultural Anthropology 606 $aContinental Philosophy 606 $aDigital Humanities 615 0$aMotion pictures$xAesthetics. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aContinental philosophy. 615 0$aDigital humanities. 615 14$aFilm Philosophy. 615 24$aSociocultural Anthropology. 615 24$aContinental Philosophy. 615 24$aDigital Humanities. 676 $a190 700 $aCarbone$b Mauro$f1956-$0151998 702 $aLingua$b Graziano 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910746967103321 996 $aToward an Anthropology of Screens$93593104 997 $aUNINA
