Description

Peter B. Kaufman is a visionary of the video age of what he calls 'the Monsterverse' for what it is - an internet dominated by purely commercial interests - and how, just maybe, we can change that. Kaufman describes how recapturing control over moving images and recorded sound can transform our online engagement from one that is stubbornly unsatisfying, aggravates inequities, and even facilitates totalitarianism, to one that can free our minds and transform education. He shows how a whole new era of visual education awaits us with exciting and unprecedented opportunities.
