Sounding the event

escapades in dialogue and matters of art, nature and time

Edición de la obra Sounding the event

"What constitutes an event? Propelled by this question, Sounding the Event encounters a variety of theories and in sounding them out hears of a host of issues that have implications for not only conceptions of nature and becoming, subject and substance but also practices of time, art and photography along with theory and its manner of speaking. Sounding the Event is a book that is full of voice. It experiments with modes of speech and also explores dialogue in its writing and as it encounters the philosophical utterances of Michel Serres, Isabelle Stengers, Alfred North Whitehead, Jean-Francois Lyotard, Maurice Blanchot, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, and Alain Badiou. While making these thinkers audible, and beckoning its reader to listen to sound, both noisy and songful, Sounding the Event continues the author's commitment to the practice of writing as a visual artist. As it proposes that 'to think' is an event, it also invites both listening and laughter."--Jacket.
