Conceived by Wagner as a way to recover the synthesis of arts at the core of the Greek tragedy, the Gesamtkunstwerk played a big role in post-Romantic aesthetics. This book revisits the total work of art as a variation of intermediality that captures the digital age's principle of open textuality through complex interplay and synergy of media.
