David Bawden deposited Information Overload: An Overview in the group
CityLIS on Humanities Commons 1 year, 3 months ago

Joseph Dunne-Howrie deposited Crisis Acting in The Destroyed Room in the group
Performance Studies on Humanities Commons 3 years, 2 months ago
The internet immerses us in waves of traumatic information, leaving us desperately crawling through media wreckage to make sense of the world. We are left alienated from a reality that never settles into a cohesive narrative.
