Zizek takes on the relations between fantasy and ideology, and the deluge of pseudo-concrete images surrounding us.

Modern audiovisual media have spawned a 'plague of fantasies', electronically inspired phantasms that cloud the ability to reason and prevent a true understanding of a world increasingly dominated by abstractionsâ€"whether those of digital technology or the speculative market.

Into this arena, enters Zizek: equipped with an agile wit and the skills of a prodigious scholar, he confidently ranges among a dazzling array of cultural referencesâ€"explicating Robert Schumann as deftly as he does John Carpenterâ€"to demonstrate how the modern condition blinds us to the ideological basis of our lives.
