>From a do-it-yourself Mount Rushmore, to an automated tribute to the annual toll of traffic deaths, Electronic Monuments describes commemoration as a fundamental experience, joining individual and collective identity. Gregory L. Ulmer proposes that the internet makes it possible for monumentality to become a site of self-knowledge, one that holds the promise of bringing citizens back into the political equation.
“Gregory Ulmer is a brilliant and inventive critic and Electronic Monuments makes many unexpected connections. An entertaining and enlightening take on American culture.” —Paul Delany
