In a world where our lives are increasingly mediated by technologies it
is surprising that more attention is not paid to the work of Gilles
Deleuze. This is especially strange given Deleuze's often explicit focus
and reliance on the machine and the technological. This volume offers
readers a collective and determined effort to explore not only the
usefulness of key ideas of Deleuze in thinking about our new digital and
biotechnological future but, also aims to take seriously a style of
thinking that negotiates between philosophy, science and art.This
exciting collection of essays will be of relevance not only to scholars
and students interested in the work of Deleuze but, also, to those
interested in coming to terms with what might seem an increasing
dominance of technology in day to day living.Contributors to this volume
include: William Bogard, Abigail Bray, Ian Buchanan, Verena Conley, Ian
Cook, Tauel Harper, Timothy Murray, Saul Newman, Luciana Parisi,
Patricia Pisters, Mark Poster, Horst Ruthrof, David Savat, Bent Meier
Sørensen and Eugene Thacker.
