This book is the outcome of a study by Lisa Barnard which took place between 20082013. Using photographs and film, it examines the unholy alliance between the military, the entertainment industry and technology, and their coalescence around modern-day warfare. From Las Vegas to Pakistan, and from Iraq to Hollywood, her work questions photojournalisms claims to truth and the indecipherable, all-consuming nature of the industrial-military complex. Barnard connects her interest in aesthetics, current photographic debates around materiality, and the existing political climate in a tense and topical documentary. With essays by Julian Stallabrass and Eugénie Shinkle.
