Promotional Information

Kate Eichhorn's Adjusted Margin is a marvelous media archaeology of the copy machine and the subcultures that proliferated around it over the last fifty years, a profound meditation on the fate of the 'recently outmoded' in the age of digital replication, and a toolbox of strategies for activists working with the weird materiality of copies today. -- Marcus Boon, Professor of English, York University; author of In Praise of Copying Well-researched and highly readable, Adjusted Margin sets the photocopier, that most ubiquitous and unnoticed artifact of twentieth-century life, within new histories of activism and artistic transgression. Kate Eichhorn's book will take its place alongside other superior examples of the new media archaeology, like Darren Wershler-Henry's The Iron Whim: A Fragmented History of Typewriting and Sumanth Gopinath's The Ringtone Dialectic. -- Will Straw, Professor of Communications, McGill University

Reviews

This is a compelling and well-researched book that offers vivid examples of the deep political significance that became attached to these concrete acts of reproduction and dissemination.—LSE Review of Books
