"Whose vision is it? it is the vision of a computer, a cyborg, an automatic missile. It is a realistic representation of human vision in the furue, when it will be augmented by computer grapcis and cleansed from noise. It is the vision of a digital grid. Synthetic computer-generated imagery is not an inferior representation of our reality, but a realistic representation of a different reality." p. 202

In a way, this quote by Manovich implies that the computer representation is a progression of the cinema, instead of a whole other medium, since it utilizes a similar visual format but perceives differently. A different lens, so to speak.
