摘要
This essay is a rewriting of Walter Benjamin's "The Work of Art in the Age of Its Technological Reproducibility," a classic text in critical theory and media studies. Appropriating Benjamin's sentence, paragraph, and essay structures, the essay presents a series of theoretical reflections on the status of art during the current age of transmedia production. The essay seeks to contribute to a theory of contemporary art that moves beyond capitalist, and increasingly fascist, ideologies. As in Benjamin's essay, this work is an effort to think dialectically about the contradictions that structure our contemporary moment, and therefore to formulate a socialist aesthetics.
