"Explores our collective desire for invisible, ethereal, and ubiquitous connectivity, however much steel, cement, and cable it takes to sustain that desire"--

Explores our collective desire for invisible, ethereal, and ubiquitous connectivity, however much steel, cement, and cable it takes to sustain that desire.

Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.

Cropping up everywhere, whether steel latticework or tapered monopoles, encrusted with fiberglass antennas, cell towers raise up high into the air the communications equipment that channels our calls, texts, and downloads. For security reasons, their locations are never advertised. But it's our romantic notions of connectivity that hide them in plain sight. We want the network to be invisible, ethereal, and ubiquitous. The cell tower stands as a challenge to these desires.

Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in the The Atlantic.

Recenzijas

Overall, Cell Tower provides useful insights into an infrastructural system so essential to our everyday engagements, yet rarely noticed and understood. * Mobile Media and Communications * As Steven E. Jones observes, we imagine that our mobile devices connect us to each other, and to a certain version of the world, in a manner thats invisible and ethereal. But in fact, this illusion depends on a great multiplicity of 200-foot-tall structures that we see, or decline to see, wherever we go: cell towers. Briskly deconstructing these enablers of our digital lives as physical objects, and as quasi-magical connectors of the immaterial, Jones reveals them as secret object-icons of our time. Once youve read this, you wont be able to stop seeing--and thinking about--the cell phone tower. * Rob Walker, author of The Art of Noticing (2019) *
