The Internet Is for Real, Campanioni Chris

Sifting through--and re-writing--the films of Godard, the novels of Henry James, Twin Peaks, VR fantasies, Internet ephemera, and his fathers dreams of Cuba, Chris Campanioni reveals the materiality of our spaceless encounters, and forces us to reckon with the violence hidden below the sleek 4G surface. As he revisits his parents migration to the United States and his own first-generation dislocation through a blur of poetry, prose, and screen-play, Campanioni shows us that in a culture of self-dissemination and unlimited arrivals, we are all exiles under the sign of a mythical return.
