Book Genesis Redux

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jessica Riskin
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2010-02-15
  • ISBN : 0226720837
  • Pages : 408 pages

Download or read book Genesis Redux written by Jessica Riskin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-02-15 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since antiquity, philosophers and engineers have tried to take life’s measure by reproducing it. Aiming to reenact Creation, at least in part, these experimenters have hoped to understand the links between body and spirit, matter and mind, mechanism and consciousness. Genesis Redux examines moments from this centuries-long experimental tradition: efforts to simulate life in machinery, to synthesize life out of material parts, and to understand living beings by comparison with inanimate mechanisms. Jessica Riskin collects seventeen essays from distinguished scholars in several fields. These studies offer an unexpected and far-reaching result: attempts to create artificial life have rarely been driven by an impulse to reduce life and mind to machinery. On the contrary, designers of synthetic creatures have generally assumed a role for something nonmechanical. The history of artificial life is thus also a history of theories of soul and intellect. Taking a historical approach to a modern quandary, Genesis Redux is essential reading for historians and philosophers of science and technology, scientists and engineers working in artificial life and intelligence, and anyone engaged in evaluating these world-changing projects.

Book Manifestly Haraway

  • Author : Donna J. Haraway
  • Publisher : U of Minnesota Press
  • Release : 2016-04-01
  • ISBN : 145295013X
  • Pages : 309 pages

Download or read book Manifestly Haraway written by Donna J. Haraway and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrifying, provocative, and controversial when first published thirty years ago, Donna Haraway’s “Cyborg Manifesto” is even more relevant today, when the divisions that she so eloquently challenges—of human and machine but also of gender, class, race, ethnicity, sexuality, and location—are increasingly complex. The subsequent “Companion Species Manifesto,” which further questions the human–nonhuman disjunction, is no less urgently needed in our time of environmental crisis and profound polarization. Manifestly Haraway brings together these momentous manifestos to expose the continuity and ramifying force of Haraway’s thought, whose significance emerges with engaging immediacy in a sustained conversation between the author and her long-term friend and colleague Cary Wolfe. Reading cyborgs and companion species through and with each other, Haraway and Wolfe join in a wide-ranging exchange on the history and meaning of the manifestos in the context of biopolitics, feminism, Marxism, human–nonhuman relationships, making kin, literary tropes, material semiotics, the negative way of knowing, secular Catholicism, and more. The conversation ends by revealing the early stages of Haraway’s “Chthulucene Manifesto,” in tension with the teleologies of the doleful Anthropocene and the exterminationist Capitalocene. Deeply dedicated to a diverse and robust earthly flourishing, Manifestly Haraway promises to reignite needed discussion in and out of the academy about biologies, technologies, histories, and still possible futures.

Babes and Bullets -- Sam Spayed wasn't the best private investigator in the world, but he did have one terrific thing going for him -- a secretary who made a great cup of coffee. The Exterminators -- no mouse was safe from the exterminators. Catching mice was their life. It wasn't a pretty job -- especially the way they did it. Lab Animal -- specimen 19-GB was not happy at the prospect of being dissected, so he did something about it. What happened set the federal government on its ear. The Garden -- life was a carefree romp among hovering harmonicas for Cloey and the orange kitten . . . until they confronted the crystal box. Primal Self -- he was an ordinary house cat leading an ordinary existence. A shadowy memory from another time changed all that. Garfield -- the marvelous cat we all know and love. This is his life in a nutshell. Space Cat -- he was lost in space with a computer built by the lowest bidder. And, he was not about to let his life slip away that easily.

Book The Death of the Cyborg Oracle

Download or read book The Death of the Cyborg Oracle written by Jordan A. Rothacker and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism," said philosopher Frederic Jameson. In Jordan A. Rothacker's The Death of the Cyborg Oracle the former has led to the latter. It's 2220 and climate catastrophe has made most of the earth uninhabitable. In this future, domed Atlanta, solar energy has ended want, but socialism would be more fun if the guilt of capitalism's role in the destruction of earth wasn't inherited by its descendants. Out of this void all goddesses and gods are reborn for worship, monotheism is verboten, and crime is divided into Sacred and Profane. Meet Assistant Sacred Detective Edwina Casaubon, she's just transferred from Profane and working with the legendary Sacred Detective Rabbi Jakob "Thinkowitz" Rabbinowitz. And not a moment too soon, someone has murdered the Oracle of Delphi. "Rothacker's The Death of The Cyborg Oracle is wildly creative, transgressive, and hilarious. With its dystopian futurism, dual critiques of capitalism and Christianity, the book feels beamed in from the future." - John Vanderslice, musician, producer, Pixel Revolt "When I read through The Death of the Cyborg Oracle, I wept. Not from sadness, but from its comforting familiarity and universalism during our times of chaos, anxiety, destruction, and uncertainty. Jordan A. Rothacker's treatment of themes ranging from science fiction to religion, and mythology to ontology provides hope in a time of despair, and a call for rebirth and regeneration while we stare at the possibility of our own dystopian future. Most of all, The Death of the Cyborg Oracle-through its stunning prose and flow-calls on us to examine, understand, and utilize the past to work for a better present." - Adam Shprintzen, historian, The Vegetarian Crusade "When the Profane prophet Alfred North Whitehead made that comment about footnotes and Plato, he could not have foreseen that The Death of the Cyborg Oracle would be the ideal embodiment of Platonic mythmaking. Set after the destruction of one Amazon and the dismantling of another, Rothacker's prescient fiction laments and celebrates our all too human blindnesses and insights. Like the eagle-like eyes of Detective Rabbi Jakob "Thinkowitz" Rabbinowitz, it felt like this book was reading and writing me all at once. Its particular mix of knowing tragedy and anarchic hope will continue to resonate long after closing its pages, like the thud of realization made by a brick of marble thrown into the hole of Tartarus." - Minus Plato, author of No Philosopher King: An Everyday Guide to Art and Life under Trump "Jordan A. Rothacker has written a holy lamb in wolf's clothing with this short novel-on the surface we have a futuristic detective yarn centred on a gruesomely violent murder, but at its heart it's a treatise on the destructive power of unfettered capitalism and the redemptive magic of faith on both a personal and community level." - Matt Neil Hill, writer, Invert/Extant press "In a time when we are all pickled in these moments and days, Jordan Rothacker's engrossing work allows us to imagine a world beyond this one." - Kelly Girtz, Mayor, Athens, Ga "A solar noir intrigue, complete with climate apocalypse, capitalism abandoned, and the murder of the Oracle at Delphi. Rothacker's bold intelligence and fleet styling will elevate and mesmerize you. Simultaneously a thrilling page turner, and a brilliant critical inquiry as to our time and our future. Smart, creative, prescient." - John Reed, author of Snowball's Chance and All the World's a Grave. "A deeply satisfying, intensely flavored stew of ancient myths and Hebrew iconoclasm, served warm in a glass postmodern bowl. I found it very comforting, especially in its humane account of genders and gods. If this is the future, we don't do as badly as we deserve." - Peter Gardella, religion scholar, author of Innocent Ecstasy and American Civil Religion
