Laboria Cuboniks

This is strange to say but I wish it was not illustrated. It is like too confusing with all the images to read clearly. But very thought provoking and interesting.

This is a beautiful book as an object: thick paper, bold colors, imaginative and surprising collages. The text, though, is woefully thin, articulating less a manifesto than a vague definition of xenofemism. There are echoes here of Paul Virilio, Wendy Brown, Donna Harraway, Judith Butler, but no footnotes, no bibliography, so it seems as if these vague ideas sort of fell into place all at once. It's a playful book, I suppose, and pretty, but ultimately not very useful.
