Air belongs to the family of multiple, heterogeneous, and massively distributed objects in time and space. Air is an hyperobject that brings with it the planetary scale with all its intense pluralism. Air is big and unfathomable, but it is also small enough to cycle our lungs with all its meaningful materiality. What we call "air" is an actual hybrid plurality of real substances, including all the chemical evolutions of the gases of the early? and present atmospheres and the emissions of volcanic crystals, seawater sprays, micro-plastics, pesticides, as well as particles from extraction, burning and manufacturing processes. What we breathe is the emissions of the immediate environment. It is...
Volumes for 1972- include also scientists from the East European countries.
This publication inquires into the future of post-industrial cities framing and speculating on different industrial contexts: archipelagos (Eibar), fabrics (Cobo Calleja), assemblies (Detroit). Currently 55% of the world’s population lives in cities, predictably reaching 70% in 2050. Cities are organisms in continuous transformation: growth, change, but also shrinking or collapse. Open City explores and speculates from contemporaneity about the future of the post-industrial city, where industrial archipelagoes (S), frames (XL) and obsolete or deprogrammed singularities (M/L) represent critical contexts but also opportunities for a new Open City. Open Systems have been the research focus of...
Only the indecisiveness of Spanish dictator Franco and diplomatic mistakes by the Nazis, argues Bowed (history, Ouachita Baptist U., Arkadelphia, Arkansas) prevented the Nazi supporters in the Spanish fascist party from bringing Spain into World War II on the side of the Axis. Still, he points out, Spaniards helped Germany by serving in its armies, working in its factories, and promoting its ideas to other nations. The study began as a doctoral dissertation for Northwestern University. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR
