• Sommario/riassunto: Technè/Technology is the up-to-date critical volume on the theories, philosophies, and debates on technology and their productivity for the fi elds of fi lm and media studies. Comprehensive as well as innovative, it is not organized around a single thesis — except the assertion that technique is a major concern for fi lm and media scholars, whether this is approached in terms of philosophy, techno-aesthetics, semiotics, apparatus theory, (new) fi lm history, media archaeology, the industry or the sensory/cognitive experience.
