Book Starry Speculative Corpse

Download or read book Starry Speculative Corpse written by Eugene Thacker and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Could it be that the more we know about the world, the less we understand it? Could it be that, while everything has been explained, nothing has meaning? Extending the ideas presented in his book In The Dust of This Planet, Eugene Thacker explores these and other issues in Starry Speculative Corpse. But instead of using philosophy to define or to explain the horror genre, Thacker reads works of philosophy as if they were horror stories themselves, revealing a rift between human beings and the unhuman world of which they are part. Along the way we see philosophers grappling with demons, struggling with doubt, and wrestling with an indifferent cosmos. At the center of it all is the philosophical drama of the human being confronting its own limits. Not a philosophy of horror, but a horror of philosophy. Thought that stumbles over itself, as if at the edge of an abyss. Starry Speculative Corpse is the second volume of the "Horror of Philosophy" trilogy, together with the first volume, In The Dust of This Planet, and the third volume, Tentacles Longer Than Night.

Book The Conundrum of Control

  • Author : Stefano Velotti
  • Publisher : BRILL
  • Release : 2024-02-12
  • ISBN : 9004694277
  • Pages : 169 pages

Download or read book The Conundrum of Control written by Stefano Velotti and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-02-12 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various forms of control play a central role in our lives. However, the nature of control is a difficult conundrum to probe. Believing we "control" ourselves, nature or others may seem like a sign of autonomy, power and self-determination, but it is often an illusion and not always desirable. Art practices help us make sense of the questions and paradoxes related to the enhancing interplay between control and non-control by putting them on display. What happens if this interplay between the two poles collapses? What are the consequences for our forms of life?

  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2008-01-09
  • ISBN : 0198040881
  • Pages : 407 pages

Download or read book Color Ordered written by Rolf G. Kuehni and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-09 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since antiquity, people have searched for a way to understand the colors we see-what they are, how many there are, and how they can be systematically identified and arranged in some kind of order. How to order colors is not merely a philosophical question, it also has many practical applications in art, design, and commerce. Our intense interest in color and its myriad practical applications have led people throughout history to develop many systems to characterize and order it. The number of color order systems developed throughout history is unknown but ranges in the hundreds. Many are no longer used, but continue to be of historical interest. Despite wrong turns and slow progress, our understanding of color and its order has improved steadily. Although full understanding continues to elude us, it seems clear that it will ultimately come from research in neurobiology, perception and consciousness. Color Ordered is a comprehensive, in-depth compendium of over 170 systems, dating from antiquity to the present. In it, Rolf Kuehni and Andreas Schwarz present a history and categorization of color systems, describe each one using original figures and schematic drawings, and provide a broad review of the underlying theory. Included are a brief overview of color vision and a synthesis of the various systems. This volume is a unique and valuable resource for researchers in color vision, and visual perception, as well as for neuroscientists, art historians, artists, and designers.

Download or read book Conundrum s Book written by Michael Jenner and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henri, a young travel photographer with a big identity problem plays the sorcerer's apprentice to Conundrum, a fiendishly clever wordsmith and rogue magus promising ultimate knowledge of a dangerous sort. Their quest takes them on a journey of high adventure from Wales and London via Catalonia, Rome, Berlin, Moscow, Switzerland, Paris, Japan and Madeira to a dramatic finale on the rugged cliffs at the western extremity of the Algarve. But the secret lurking at the end of Southend Pier might after all be the key to the Holy Grail that is the dark mystery of Conundrum's Book. Or does the answer lie in the crazy jumble of Conundrum's seedy flat at 7 Moonbeam Mansions? A unique blend of unpredictable action, philosophical fireworks, outrageous behaviour, metaphysical speculation and some adult material of a rather unusual nature keeps the reader hooked right to the end.

Several of the chapters describe new, state-of-the-art methods within genetics, morphology, imaging techniques, electrophysiology, psychophysics, and computational neuroscience. The book gives a comprehensive overview of the different disciplines in human color vision in a way that makes it accessible to specialists and non-specialist scientists alike. About the Series: The Springer Series in Vision Research is a comprehensive update and overview of cutting edge vision research, exploring, in depth, current breakthroughs at a conceptual level. It details the whole visual system, from molecular processes to anatomy, physiology and behavior and covers both invertebrate and vertebrate organisms from terrestrial and aquatic habitats. Each book in the Series is aimed at all individuals with interests in vision including advanced graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, established vision scientists and clinical investigators. The series editors are N. Justin Marshall, Queensland Brain Institute, The University of Queensland, Australia and Shaun P. Collin, Neuroecology Group within the School of Animal Biology and the Oceans Institute at the University of Western Australia.

Book Searching for the Cinaedus in Ancient Rome

Download or read book Searching for the Cinaedus in Ancient Rome written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-09-04 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cryptic figure of the cinaedus recurs in both the literature and daily life of the Roman world. His afterlife – the equally cryptic catamite – appears to be well and alive as late as Victorian England. But who was the cinaedus? Should we think of a real group of individuals, or is the term but a scare name to keep at bay any form of threating otherness? This book, the first coherent collection of essays on the topic, addresses the matter and fleshes out the complexity of a debate that concerns not only Roman cinaedi but the foundations of our theoretical approach to the study of ancient sexuality.
