The other works conform more to the definition of the literature of exclusion: works that confront the existential and ontological instance when meaning can no longer be grasped as a result of the authorship of cultural narratives shifting increasingly further away from human storytelling to the algorithmic functionalities of the apparatus."Wenaus, Andrew C.. Literature of Exclusion: Dada, Data, and the Threshold of Electronic LiteratureI think that's where we're at in the digital arts. It's now a collective enterprise, open and bound to the modalities of the whole planetary platform of open-source images. The idea of copyright is old school and is now going to be excluded in favor of a collective open world of creativity. It may be a battle for many decades to come but it will come, a new economy will supervene and change across the board. All these old school critics of capitalism are still bound to dead notions for a dead world. We live in the posthuman era beyond the staid humanistic individual and its sense of identity and ownership. Obviously here in the States people won't buy into such notions as of yet, but it won't matter they will because their children will be born into that world. Technology is changing the way capitalism works without politics even being a part of it. Politics is dead. Most of the world goes on without acknowledging the local political and social environments in which it operates. Capitalism just masks itself and goes about its business doing what must be done to continue in its own direction with technology. Capitalism is and never has been against technology, only ever conforming to the needs of its negotiations.
