Virilio discusses the relationship of war trauma and art and the failure of visual art to reinvent itself when confronted with technology.



Why has art simply retreated into painting, or surrendered to digital technology? Accidents, Virilio claims, can free us from speed's inertia. As technological catastrophes, accidents are inventions in their own right.
