Critical Zones : The Science and Politics of Landing on Earth
MIT Press, (2020)Abstract
"This monumental volume, drawn from a 2020 exhibition at the ZKM Center for Art and Media, portrays the disorientation of life in a world facing climate change. It traces this disorientation to the disconnection between two different definitions of the land on which modern humans live: the sovereign nation from which they derive their rights, and another one, hidden, from which they gain their wealththe land they live on, and the land they live from. Charting the land they will inhabit, they find not a globe, not the iconic blue marble, but a series of critical zonespatchy, heterogenous, discontinuous." -- Publisher's website.
