Salter examines three works in which the materials of art - the 'stuff of the world' - behave and perform in ways beyond the creator's intent, becoming unknown, surprising, alien. Studying thse works - all three deeply embroiled in and enabled by science and technology - allows him to focus on practice through the experiential and affective elements of creation. Drawing on extensive ethnographic observation and on his own experience as an artist, Salter investigates how researcher-creators organize the conditions for these experimental, performative assemlages that sidestep dichotomies between subjects and objects, human and nonhuman, mind and body, knowing and experiencing." 606 $aArtificial life 606 $aExperience 606 $aCreation (Literary, artistic, etc.) 606 $aTechnology$xPhilosophy 606 $aTissue culture$xPhilosophy 606 $aSenses and sensation 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aArtificial life. 615 0$aExperience. 615 0$aCreation (Literary, artistic, etc.) 615 0$aTechnology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aTissue culture$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aSenses and sensation. 676 $a303.48/33 700 $aSalter$b Chris$f1967-$01045017 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460173403321 996 $aAlien agency$92470963 997 $aUNINA
