Warhol appears as a theorist of mass production and consumer indifference, where his famous observation about Coca-Cola consumption serves to illustrate how industrial systems flatten aesthetic and social hierarchies—the reading uses him to show that art and capitalism have become inseparable in post-war culture. His work enables the course to explore how mechanical reproduction and mass media remake our relationship to authenticity and value, questions central to understanding how algorithmic systems now continue this flattening logic at scale.
