Description

Crepuscular Dawn marks a significant shift in human history. This "genetic bomb" signals a new form of warfare that is replacing revolution and war. The consequences of this shift are far-reaching, as the boundaries between space and time become increasingly blurred. Paul Virilio's work on the relationship between speed and time has led to a reevaluation of the role of technology in shaping our world. In this book, he explores the intersection of biotechnology and the human experience. Sylvere Lotringer challenges Virilio's theories by examining the historical foundations of his ideas and their potential implications for society. The book delves into the development of Virilio's thought on space and time, and how these concepts inform his views on biotechnology. A key question is whether the colonization of the body will replace the colonization of one's own population by military forces.
