Cybernetic Revelation explores the dual philosophical histories of deconstruction and artificial intelligence, tracing the development of concepts like the "logos" and the notion of modeling the mind technologically from pre-history to contemporary thinkers like Slavoj Žižek, Steven Pinker, Bernard Stiegler and Daniel C. Dennett. The writing is clear and accessible throughout, yet the text probes deeply into major philosophers seen by JD Casten as "conceptual engineers." Philosophers covered include: Anaximander, Heraclitus, Parmenides, Plato, Aristotle, Philo, Augustine, Shakespeare, Descartes, Spinoza, Leibniz, Locke, Berkeley, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Freud, Jung, Joyce, Dewey, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, Adorno, Benjamin, Derrida, Chomsky, Žižek, Pinker, Dennett, Hofstadter, Stiegler + more; with special chapters on: AI's history, Complexity, Deconstructing AI, Aesthetics, Consciousness + more...
Post-Digital Revelation is a prophetic poem/novella about nothing less than the creation of the universe, the landing of aliens on earth, the discovery of artificial intelligence, and stepping out to connect with other people. The poem/novella works through a tradition reaching back through Joyce, Nietzsche, Blake, Milton, and Dante; and moves through the streams-of-consciousness of the Devil, to that of the Universal Mind, on to that of a couple of ordinary humans, and an extraordinary monkey. Like a twenty-first century post-modern romanticist Faust, or Frankenstein, this fantastical journey of the mind, twenty years in the writing, will challenge your preconceptions of what a philosophical poetry can accomplish.
Coming from a background as a major label recording artist, in 1997 Minnesota based artist Ana Voog started the second continuous 24/7 home webcam, which was the first oriented towards performance art, as well as featuring traditional and new medium artworks. Her webcam has lasted a decade, and her "anacam" project has been included in the New York Museum of Modern Art, the Weisman Art Museum, and the Walker Art Center; with television appearances on E!, A & E, Hard Copy, and Vibe; and print coverage in such periodicals as USA Today, Newsweek, The Boston Globe, The New York Post, and Playboy. This book is nothing more nor less than an edited collection of Ana Voog's photography, art and writings with a brief introduction to situate schizophrenic artist J.D. Casten's self-effacing minimalist approach to curating the work-the book itself really has no author, but rather a subject with a unique voice (the work of Ana Voog) and an editor with an eye for quality.
Foundry Technology brings together basic metal casting phenomena, foundry techniques and product characteristics in a single work of reference. Peter Beeley was a foundry manager before he became a senior lecturer in metallurgy, and subsequently maintained continuous links with the castings industry and associated research activities and publications. His book is designed to serve as a bridge between the study of the basic principles of metal founding and their application in the producing and user industries. A particular aim of Foundry Technology is to assist engineers and engineering students in appreciating the role of castings in design and materials selection. Orthodox and specialized ...
