Communicating Mobility and Technology

Responding to the effects of human mobility and crises such as depleting oil supplies, Ehren Helmut Pflugfelder applies kinaesthetic rhetoric to automobility, or the specific kinds of mobility afforded by autonomous, automobile-based movement technologies and their ramifications. He looks at electric taxi cabs from the turn of the century to modern day, open-source vehicle projects, and a large case study of an autonomous, electric pod car network that ultimately failed.
