Power On/Power Off
www.PowerOnPowerOff.com is the homepage of Mae Saslaw. This website contains some of her recent works. It is an attempt to define and analyze connections between technology and hegemony, to bring to light those instances when the acceleration of the rate of change (in technology, history, culture, etc.) either re-enforces or challenges the existing apparatuses.
When is the power on, and when is it off?
