- Against Transmission represents sustained research endeavour in a long-form output. It is the sole outcome of an 18-month Leverhulme Fellowship and 12 month's work prior to that. It necessitated archival research at international libraries and museums (Smithsonian National Museum of American History, British Library, UK National Science and Media Museum, German Museum of Technology, Museum for Film and Television, Berlin), to develop new critical insights into the history of audiovisual technology from primary sources (history of television, early cinema, computers). The analysis of this complex and wide-ranging material facilitated an original philosophical approach to the history of media and communication.
