Hyposubjects
The time of hyposubjects is just beginning. They are the native species of the Anthropocene and just discovering what they can become.
100 Atmospheres
100 Atmospheres is an invitation to think differently. Through speculative, poetic, and provocative texts, thirteen writers and artists have come together to reflect on human relationships with other species and the planet.
Being Up for Grabs
This is a book on contingency. More than claiming that chaos reigns, it spells out the details of its governance in a metaphysics of accident. It looks at what is up for grabs in terms of fragments, doubts and rhythms, engaging with Alfred North Whitehead, Gilles Deleuze, Bruno Latour, Quentin Meillassoux among others in the process.
Open Access and the Humanities
If you work in a university, you are almost certain to have heard the term 'open access' in the past couple of years. You may also have heard either that it is the utopian answer to all the problems of research dissemination or perhaps that it marks the beginning of an apocalyptic new era of 'pay-to-say' publishing. In this book, Martin Paul Eve sets out the histories, contexts and controversies for open access, specifically in the humanities. Broaching practical elements alongside economic histories, open licensing, monographs and funder policies, this book is a must-read for both those new to ideas about open-access scholarly communications and those with an already keen interest in the latest developments for the humanities. This title is also available as Open Access via Cambridge Books Online.
Photomediations
Photomediations: A Reader offers a radically different way of understanding photography. The concept of photomediations that unites the twenty essays collected here challenges the traditional classification of photography as suspended between art and social practice. Capturing the dynamics of the photographic medium today, it also explores photography's inherent kinship with other media.
The Being of Analogy
In The Being of Analogy, Noah Roderick unleashes similarity onto the world of objects. Inspired by object-oriented theories of causality, Roderick argues that similarity is ever present at the birth of new objects. This includes the emergent similarity of new mental objects, such as categories-a phenomenon we recognize as analogy. Analogy, Roderick contends, is at the very heart of cognition and communication, and it is through analogy that we can begin dismantling the impossible wall between knowing and being.
Anthropocene Back Loop
We are entering the Anthropocene's back loop, a time of release and collapse, confusion and reorientation, in which not only populations and climates are being upended but also physical and metaphysical grounds. Needed now are forms of experimentation geared toward autonomous modes of living within the back loop's new unsafe operating spaces.
In Catastrophic Times
This book is addressed to everyone who is struggling and experimenting today, to everyone who is a true contemporary of what Stengers dares to call "the intrusion of Gaia," this "nature" that has left behind its traditional role and now has the power to question us all. In Catastrophic Times is neither a book of prophecy nor a survival guide. Here, Stengers reminds us that it falls to us to experiment with the apparatuses that make us capable of surviving without sinking into barbarism, to create what nourishes trust where panicked impotence threatens.
