Zusatztext Aesthetics, Digital Studies and Bernard Stiegler offers an interesting focus on Stieglerian philosophy, passing through epistemology, politics and the arts. This strong theoretical approach keeps together voices from different authors and perspectives, all of which cover an important lack in the several publications concerning Stiegler’s philosophy, that is, aesthetics and the arts. Being this one of the main concerns of the French philosopher, the book offers an important introduction to this field. Informationen zum Autor Noel Fitzpatrick is Head of Research College of Arts and Tourism at the Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland. Néill O’Dwyer is a senior research fellow and the principal investigator (PI) of 'Performative Investigations in Extended and Augmented Reality Technologies' (PIX-ART), in the Dept. of Drama at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. He was formerly an awardee of the prestigious Irish Research Council Government of Ireland Research Fellowship. He specialises in practice-based research in digital art and performance. Michael O'Hara is Lecturer Fine Art at the Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland. Klappentext Aesthetics, Digital Studies and Bernard Stiegler frames the intertwined relationship between artistic endeavours and scientific fields and their sociopolitical implications. Each chapter is either an explication of, or a critique of, some aspect of Bernard Stiegler's technological philosophy; as it is his technological-political-aesthetical-ethical theorisations which form the philosophical foundation of the volume.Emerging scholars bring critical new reflections to the subject area, while more established academics, researchers and practitioners outline the mutating nature of aesthetics within historical and theoretical frameworks. Not only is interdisciplinarity a prevailing topic at work within this collection, but so too is there a delineation of the mutating, hybrid role inhabited by the arts practitioner - at once engineer, scientist and artist - in the changing landscape of digital cultural production.
