Architectures of Excess: Cultural Life in the Information Age Paperback - 1994
by Jim Collins
First line
It has by now become commonplace to insist that one of the ramifications of living in the information-saturated cultures of the nineties is that individuals have lost any sense of identity, because that excess of signs has necessarily destroyed any coherent sense of space and time.
From the rear cover
'Arguing for the need to rethink established positions on aura, subjectivity, time and space, Collins shows that we are defined not just by the struggle between the futuristic and anachronistic but by the way in which the old and the 'already said' is today constantly repackaged and decidedly the 'still being sad'. The jargon of post-modernity becomes easily understood through case STUDIES WHICH MAKE SENSE of cyberpunk fiction, music, film, TV, and contemporary architecture.' --Rob Shields, Carleton University
