{"product_id":"radiant-matter-ken-hollings-9789491677762","title":"Radiant Matter","description":"\u003cp\u003eRadiant Matter comprises of a series of recent artworks that are united in their desire to analyze and reflect on the nature of scientific inquiry, the role of speculation, fiction, and spiritualism. A central position in this book belongs to the Radiant Matter, an edited pictorial essay which the book lends its title from, consisting of over 250 images selected from various disciplines: astronomy, cosmology, medicine, technology and anthropology. Their color composition is not coincidental; it is based on the gradient seen on scientific observations of cosmic background radiation. Since ancient times celestial bodies are thought to have had an influence on the human body, as oftentimes represented in the image of the Zodiac Man. Already in the 1800s electromagnetic waves had been discovered and some 100 years ago cosmic radiation was identified. Radiant Matter recon- figures such moments in history, scientific or spiritual in nature, in order to analyze, manipulate and revaluate their significance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTogether with a poetic image essay and a conversation between the artist and the editor Kris Dittel, this widely illustrated book includes texts by Ken Hollings, Maarten Vanden Eynde, and Raqs Media Collective.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ken Hollings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9491677764\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789491677762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Onomatopee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.40w x 0.30d","brand":"Ken Hollings","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941355290879,"sku":"9789491677762","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_9506c861-4a13-4de4-bb28-1edf303bd1be.jpg?v=1681452438","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/radiant-matter-ken-hollings-9789491677762","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
