For another relatively modern spin on the 'talking head' and its
use by evil forces, read "That Hideous Strength", the third book
in C. S. Lewis' "Perelandra" trilogy...
I reread it a couple of years ago (having originally read it in the early
70s), and was impressed with how prescient Lewis was in predicting what
is now modern society...especially his vision of a world run by a
superconglomerate, a 'new world order', as it were...
