Title: Life Extreme
Date: 2007
Specifications: paperback, 6.5 x 8.5 in. / 128 pgs / 100 color illustrations
Authors: Eduardo Kac & Avital Ronell
Language: English
Summary: For this artist's book Eduardo Kac has chosen to encounter philosopher Avital Ronell, who has gone beyond traditional philosophical themes to focus her thought on issues such as the telephone, drug addiction, television, tests, stupidity, and the greeting. They collaborate here on Life Extreme, at the crossroads between a natural history of human-created beings, alternative evolution, and the private lives of real but rarely-seen creatures. While the earliest documented living being in Life Extreme goes back to the 17th century, many others were first created in the XXIst century. United here for the first time, these unique plants and animals tell a different story about life on planet Earth.
