Contradictory Dynamics in the Domestication of Technology and the Dislocation of Domesticity

David Morley

Goldsmiths Colleged.morley{at}gold.ac.uk

This article focuses on how we can understand the contradictory dynamicsthrough which communications technologies have been domesticated at the same time that domesticity itself has been dislocated. The article addresses questions of historical periodization and the need for a more developed historical perspective on the futurological debates about the new technologies with which so much of media and cultural studies is concerned today.

Key Words: deterritorialization • futurology • geography • individualization • mobility
