Dionysos Speed — An ABC best book of the year (2024)
S For Story/10650388
A jeremiad for the age of AI fantasies and digital conspiracy that just might inoculate its reader against the viral lure of virtual post-humanism.
NEW YORK - s4story -- Voted one of the best books of 2024 by ABC.net.au, Rainer J. Hanshe's Dionysos Speed was also praised by Soni Wadhwa as a "poetic representative" of western modernity's sub-era. In her Full Stop review, Wadhwa noted that the "genius" of Hanshe's "snapshots of digitality as apocalypse" "lies in its imagination of audio-visual minutiae of digital interactions."
Concluding, she states that if "Dionysos Speed is—scary, depressing, and confusing in equal parts ... it is also a book that encourages perseverance and persistence. Hanshe has been very intentional with his unsparing exaggeration of the horrors of digital lives, an exaggeration that is well deserved, but the book does not take for granted the reader's intelligence and knowledge about dangers of digitality. An encounter with Hanshe's vision of digital evil is very likely to leave one awed in terms of its craft for turning the macabre into an artistic project between science fiction and prophecy."
