Biopolitical Screens: Image, Power, and the Neoliberal Brain

---

"In Biopolitical Screens, Pasi V?aliaho charts and conceptualizes the imagery that composes our affective and conceptual reality under twenty-first-century capitalism. V?aliaho investigates the role screen media play in the networks that today harness human minds and bodies--the ways that images animated on console game platforms, virtual reality technologies, and computer screens capture human potential by plugging it into arrangements of finance, war, and the consumption of entertainment. Drawing on current neuroscience and political and economic thought, V?aliaho argues that these images work to shape the atomistic individuals who populate the neoliberal world of accumulation and war."--Publisher's description.OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.
