About The Archive Incarnate: The Embodiment and Transmission of Knowledge in Science Fiction (Critical Explorations in Science Fiction and Fantasy, 65)

We live in an information economy, a vast archive of data ever at our fingertips. In the pages of science fiction, powerful entities–governments and corporations–attempt to use this archive to control society, enforce conformity or turn citizens into passive consumers. Opposing them are protagonists fighting to liberate the collective mind from those who would enforce top-down control. Archival technology and its depictions in science fiction have developed dramatically since the 1950s. Ray Bradbury discusses archives in terms of books and television media, and Margaret Atwood in terms of magazines and journaling. William Gibson focused on technofuturistic cyberspace and brain-to-computer prosthetics, Bruce Sterling on genetics and society as an archive of social practices. Neal Stephenson has imagined post-cyberpunk matrix space and interactive primers. As the archive is altered, so are the humans that interact with ever-advancing technology.
