China and the Wireless Undertow: Media as Wave Philosophy

In the twenty-first century city, wireless waves constitute an imperceptible, immersive, all-encompassing environment. Nowhere is this more so than in China, where a hyperdense network of mobile media has restructured daily life. Anna Greenspan re-imagines the relationship between China and wirelessness by synthesizing contemporary media theory with modern Chinese thought. It focuses specifically on the work of three critical figures: Tan Sitong 譚嗣同 (1865-1898), Xiong Shili 熊十力 (1885-1968) and Mou Zongsan 牟宗三 (1909-1995).
