Like the seventeenth century Baroque, Americans suddenly are buriedinside a fundamentalist Thirty-Years war. Meanwhile, scripted entertainment operates as an instrument of power for those exploiting this war. What emerging art strategies best capture the alienation -- and comic perversities -- brought on by this Electronic Baroque moment? A presentation and discussion.
