Rooted on a thorough understanding of the history of philosophy, this work builds on critical and ontological thought to interpret the concept of life that underscores first-hand dealings with matter and experimentation. The book breaks new ground on the issue of animality and delivers fresh posthumanist perspectives on the topics addressed. The authors embark on a deep ontological probe of the concept of medium as communication-bridging and life-bearing. They also take on the concept of performativity as biotechnological art. The book includes concrete, well-documented case studies and shows how certain narratives and practices directly impact ideas surrounding science and technologies. It will interest philosophers in art and technology, aesthetics, ontology, and the life sciences. It will also engage art practitioners in art and science, curators and researchers. 410 0$aPhilosophical Studies Series,$x2542-8349 ;$v153 606 $aAesthetics 606 $aArt$xPhilosophy 606 $aOntology 606 $aBiology$xPhilosophy 606 $aBioethics 606 $aAesthetics 606 $aPhilosophy of Art 606 $aOntology 606 $aPhilosophy of Biology 606 $aBioethics 615 0$aAesthetics. 615 0$aArt$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aOntology. 615 0$aBiology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aBioethics. 615 14$aAesthetics. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Art. 615 24$aOntology. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Biology. 615 24$aBioethics. 676 $a111.85 700 $aGonzález Valerio$b María Antonia$01425163 701 $aTratnik$b Polona$0921296 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910742486203321 996 $aThrough the Scope of Life$93555427 997 $aUNINA
