This is a challenging exploration of how, for both good and ill, the sudden ubiquity of mobile devices, GPS systems, haptic technologies, and other forms of media alter individuals’ experience of their bodies and shape the social collective. The author succeeds in problematizing the most salient fact of contemporary mobile media technologies, namely, that they have become, like highways and plumbing, an infrastructure that regulates habit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAudacious in its originality, Finding Augusta will be of great interest to art and media scholars alike.","brand":"Dartmouth College Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47130240254192,"sku":"9781611685237","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781611685237_p0.jpg?v=1763846683","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781611685237","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
