Featuring Swiss binding and an arresting cover image of crumpled tin foil, the volume documents a condition in which biological life and technological systems are no longer separable yet remain unevenly aligned. The images--often depicting power plants, lab experiments and computational imagery--are presented without hierarchy or chronology, reflecting the simultaneity of the systems that define our current moment. They consider technology not as a departure from the natural world, but as one of its emergent forms; within this continuum, human agency remains present but diffuse, distributed across systems growing larger, faster and less legible. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Spencer Lowell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1954877293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781954877290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kris Graves Projects\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/13\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Spencer Lowell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49084133572863,"sku":"9781954877290","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/spencer-lowell-spencer-lowell-9781954877290","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
