Looking for Marshall McLuhan in Afghanistan: iProbes and iPhone Photographs

by Rita Leistner

Book Overview

Conflict photographer and critical theorist Rita Leistner applies Marshall McLuhan's semiotic theories of language, media and technology to iPhone photographs taken during a military embed in Afghanistan. In a series of iProbes - a portmanteau of iPhone and probe - Leistner reveals the face of war through the extensions of man.
