Imagining What We Don't Know: Creative Theory and Critical Bodies

By Lisa Samuels

Bringing together perception, ecology, community, lingual value, and quantum life, Imagining What We Don't Know: Creative Theory and Critical Bodies presents twenty-four essays and theory poems that blend interpretive neologisms - wild dialectics, distributed centrality, membranism, deformance, bioautography, transplace, soft text, and more - with readings of visionary philosophers and the art and writing of Algeria, Australasia, the Caribbean, Oceania, the UK, and the US.
