Literary Hub (Andersson)

 

Language is abstract, film concrete and material. The text can say human, whereas the film can never show human, it has to be a particular human with certain qualities. Text is furthermore the only medium that can say would have had or not, no one, nothing.
-- Lena Andersson. "Why the Robot Takeover Isn't Coming Any Time Soon." Literary Hub (2019-03-27) [Translated from the Swedish by Saskia Vogel].
