This series of interventions on the ramifications of Speculative Realism for aesthetics ranges from contemporary art's relation to the aesthetic, to accelerationism and abstraction, logic and design. From varied perspectives of philosophy, art, and design, participants examine the new technological mediations between the human sensorium and the massive planetary media network within which it now exists and consider how the aesthetic enables new modes of knowledge by processing sensory data through symbolic formalisms and technological devices. Speculative Aesthetics anticipates the possibility of a theory and practice no longer invested in the otherworldly promise of the aesthetic, but acknowledging the real force and traction of images in the world today, experimentally employing techniques of modelling, formalisation, and presentation so as to simultaneously engineer new domains of experience and map them through a reconfigured aesthetics that is inseparable from its sociotechnical conditions.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityContributor: Benedict Singleton (Contributions by), James Trafford (Edited by), Luke Pendrell (Edited by), Robin Mackay (Edited by), Amanda Beech (Contributions by), Ray Brassier (Contributions by), Nick Srnicek (Contributions by), Ben Woodard (Contributions by), Mark Fisher (Contributions by), James Trafford (Contributions by), Alex Williams (Contributions by), Tom Trevatt (Contributions by), Robin Mackay (Contributions by)Book Series: Urbanomic / RedactionsTopic: Arts & PhotographyAuthor: Benedict SingletonRelease Year: 2014 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
