My review essay of "The Gutenberg Parenthesis" by @jeffjarvis is now available in English language: Pressing Matters After Gutenberg: On the Power of the Copy From Print to Digital Media: https://mirblog.hypotheses.org/184 I discuss Jarvis’s outstanding work and explore the transition from print-based media to data-driven business models. Then I try to further develop Walter Benjamin’s concept of “technical reproducibility” across 3 analytical levels: representation, replication, and referentiality.
