SPEED, DROMOLOGY, AND IVISIBILITY - January 31, 2012

abstract deadline

 

Are we moving from the futurist’s speed through contemporary dromology to the disappearance of the human body? What are the future trajectories of a continuous process of acceleration? Is the disappearance of the body through artificial speed a process of invisibility or that of a visibility through acceleration?
