Mediamatic 1989

In 1989 three new Mediamatic Magazines come out.

Paul Virilio describes in volume 3#3 in La Conduite Inférieure the history of the infrastructure of information transfer via a vehicle/machine to information that is being displaced by becoming increasingly invisible machinery:

In the past, the size of every technical object gradually diminished, but this happened over long periods of time. Today, the wish to make space and to make parts lighter, leads to an accelerated depression of forms and volumes.

In the summer of 1989 a new edition of MM magazine appeared in which media archeology is described and the museum as a space for the storage of objects (science, technology and art) is critically being explored.
