PINTO, Alexandra Lima Gonçalves. Diversity and media in the work of Godfrey Reggio. []. , 17, 31, pp.153-163. ISSN 1645-5681.  https://doi.org/10.14195/2183-5462_31_10.

This text approaches the work of Godfrey Reggio, independent American director who has Technology as his main theme. Throughout his work, marked by a poetic and philosophical look, Reggio produced a striking critique of the contemporary world. His films expose the conflict between Nature and Technology, seen by the filmmaker as a “new nature”, artificial. More than anything we use, he believes that Technology is the environment in which we live today. Despite the paradox of using the audiovisual to criticize Technology, Reggio does so in a conscious and creative way. A deeper study of his films and their main influences and theoretical references leads us to question the prevailing technological homogenization and to ask whether diversity is actually possible in the media.
