Forensic Media: Reconstructing Accidents in Accelerated Modernity - Sign, Storage, Transmission
Greg Siegel
This provocative book considers how photographic, electronic, and digital media have been used to record and reconstruct accidents, particularly high-speed crashes and catastrophes, and argues that "forensic media" thereby transmute disruptive chance occurrences into reassuring narratives of causal succession.
