Newman casts video as a medium of shifting value and legitimacy in relation to other media and technologies, particularly film and television. Video has been imagined as more or less authentic or artistic than movies or television, as more or less democratic and participatory, as more or less capable of capturing the real. Techno-utopian rhetoric has repeatedly represented video as a revolutionary medium, promising to solve the problems of the past and the present-often the very problems associated with television and the society shaped by it-and to deliver a better future. Video has also been seen more negatively, particularly as a threat to movies and their culture. This study considers video as an object of these hopes and fears and builds an approach to thinking about the concept of the medium in terms of cultural status."--Culumbia University Press website,|uhttps://cup.columbia.edu/book/ 978-0-231-16951-6/video-revolutions 630 00 YouTube (Electronic resource) 650 0 Video recordings|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Videocassettes|xSocial aspects. 650 0 Home video systems|xHistory. 650 0 Streaming video|xHistory. 650 0 Motion picture audiences|xHistory. 954 20140808|bMarcive Authority Bib 956 20140619 |bpfmcq|cCCS 956 20140805|btsmm|cMA 957 OCLC xref loaded 20180325 994 C0|bCUY
