In The Flesh of Images, Mauro Carbone analyzed MerleauPonty's interest in film and modern painting as it relates to his aesthetic theory and as it illuminates our contemporary relationship to images. PhilosophyScreens broadens the work undertaken in this earlier book, looking at the ideas of other twentiethcentury thinkers concerning the relationship between philosophy and film, and extending that analysis to address our experience of electronic and digital screens in the twentyfirst century. In the first part of the book, Carbone examines the ways that Sartre, MerleauPonty, Lyotard, and Deleuze grappled with the philosophical significance of cinema as a novel aesthetic medium unfolding in the twentieth century. He then considers the significance of this philosophical framework for understanding the digital revolution, in particular the extent to which we are increasingly and comprehensively connected with screens. Smartphones, tablets, and computers have become a primary referential optical apparatus for everyday life in ways that influence the experience not only of seeing but also of thinking and desiring. Carbone's PhilosophyScreens follows Deleuze's call for "a philosophycinema" that can account for these fundamental changes in perception and aesthetic production, and adapts it to twentyfirstcentury concerns.
