[-empyre-] BOOKSHELF ALL-CALL: -empyre week 2

[Simon Biggs]

Here in the Southern Hemisphere it’s winter and mid academic year so reading tends to be marginalised. Books I currently have open are:

Karen Barad, Meeting the Universe Halfway.
Roberto Simanowski, Digital Art and Meaning
Tim Ingold, Being Alive
Markku Eskelinen, Cybertext Poetics
Diana Coole & Samantha Frost, New Materialisms
Franco Moretti, Distant Reading

best

Simon

I have really been enjoying perusing through all of your lists and have found some interesting titles that I have added to my own  list. I am headed to NYC for the next few days and am looking forward to reading some of The Botany of Desire.
