Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book builds on the works of Artaud and Deleuze, setting forth a different way of thinking on the body through the use of a whole new set of conceptual tools. Paic argues that the human body has become obsoletein relation to the development of cybernetics and artificial intelligence,proposing that it can be understood neither as a bare thing nor a machine, but instead as an event.The concept of White Holes serves both as a metaphor and as a guide for understanding constellations such as the visualization of the body, thecorporeal turn, fascination with the digital image, and the technosphere.Through visualization of the body, we reach out to a space of singularity of thought that is not adescriptionof reality, but rather its aestheticconstruction. Leading a paradigm shift after the end of metaphysics in cybernetics, Paic argues that phenomenology and psychoanalysis can no longer be credible theoretical orientations for deep insight into what happens when artificial life takes over what remains of the body's immanence. 204 pp. Englisch.
