   Featuring extensive artist images and statements along with individual analysis from Albertini. A rarely experienced cutting edge dialogue between two vastly opposed but melding disciplines. A must for contemporary art and technology based studies. Rosanna Albertini is a scholar of eighteenth-century philosophy who transferred her interest in human nature and history to contemporary art. A former researcher in the Department of Philosophy of the University of Pisa (Italy), she is the organizer and chairperson of the Annenberg Dialogues, as well as a curator and art writer (primarily for artpress, Paris). About twenty years ago she started filling numerous pages of Italian magazines and newspapers with information about technological experiments in the European art scene. At the same time she was doing research, writing about every kind of contemporary art, and lecturing in European museums, at video art festivals, and at art schools. In 1990 she left Italy for Paris, living at the Cité des Arts for two years before moving to Los Angeles in 1992. Italy is her country, but Los Angeles has become her hometown. This is her first book in English.
