Amusing Ourselves to Death

  • Christian Kett

To re-imagine and bring Neil Postman’s 1985 book ‘Amusing Ourselves To Death’ up to date I re-read his observations and Orwellian prophecies about the ever accelerating dependence on screens and our declining attention spans. The result was a maximalist visual interpretation of the book with a new augmented reality layer to be experienced by the viewer through their phone.
