Félix Guattari once pointed out the promise of a post-media era on the basis of his experiences from the 1970s through to his death in 1992, involving pirate radio, emergent forms of interconnectivity like Minitel and computer-assisted design, hypertext, and the fledgling world wide web. This volume contributes substantially to the renewal of this legacy.
