Indeed, the present corporatized, monolithic, surveilled state of our networked communications is just one possibility out of many, and there is radical promise in uncovering hidden alternatives: from pirate radio to barbed wire telegraph, from synthesizers transmitted over the telephone to encoded messages bounced off the surface of the moon. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eOther Networks\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is writer and researcher Lori Emerson’s speculative index of communications networks that existed before or outside of the internet: digital as well as analog, IRL as well as imagined, state-sponsored systems of control as well as homebrew communities in the footnotes of hacker culture. Featuring explanatory descriptions of each network, archival images, and original artwork by Robert Beatty, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eOther Networks\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e documents historically alternative networks with a particular eye towards their experimental usage by artists and writers. The result is a boldly creative taxonomy of our networked world, a liberatory sourcebook for readers eager to escape the hegemony of technological history, and a lovingly designed guide to the freedoms and communal possibilities that have been lost along the way.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anthology Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57105803051343,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2424\/8147\/files\/LoriEmerson-OtherNetworks_ARadicalTechnologySourcebook_1.jpg?v=1771952564","url":"https:\/\/www.legrandj.eu\/products\/lori-emerson-other-networks-a-radical-technology-sourcebook","provider":"Le Grand Jeu","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
