Critical zones : the science and politics of landing on Earth : [ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe, May 23, 2020-February 28, 2021]Artists and writers portray the disorientation of a world facing climate change. This monumental volume, drawn from a 2020 exhibition at the ZKM Center for Art and Media, portrays the disorientation ... of life in world facing climate change. It traces this disorientation to the disconnection between two different definitions of the land on which modernizing humans live: the sovereign nation from which they derive their rights, and another one, hidden, from which they gain their wealth the 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 zones patchy, heterogenous, discontinuous. With short pieces, longer essays, and more than 500 illustrations, the contributors explore the new landscape on which it may be possible for humans to land what it means to be on Earth, whether the critical zone, the Gaia, or the terrestrial. They consider geopolitical conflicts and tools redesigned for the new geopolitics of life forms. The thought exhibition described in this book can opens a fictional space to explore the new climate regime; the rest of the story is unknown.Type of material - catalogue ; adult, seriousPublication and manufacture - Karlsruhe : ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe ; Cambridge (Mass.) ; London : The MIT Press, cop. 2020Language - englishISBN - 978-0-262-04445-5COBISS.SI-ID - 71109123
