Art against the machine

From a position of concern with ecological breakdown, this book inquires into the role of art and theory in relation to the hybridist idea that a distinction between nature and culture, between humans and technologies, and between nature and technologies should not be made. It relates the demise of critique of technology to the rise of space perspectives on Earth, the internet and the network economy. This history unfolds a genealogy of the Anthropocene discourse and the proposed aesthetics of an ecology without nature as a naturalisation of technologisation which does not contest, but instead intensifies, the domination of nature inherent in the nature-culture dualism.
