Description
Small Gods explores the complex relationship between technology and human experience through the lens of the drone. From its origins as a soothing sound to its use as a killing machine, the drone embodies conflicting notions of terror and transcendence. The book delves into the work of artists who have used drones in their practice, revealing the multifaceted nature of these technological entities. It examines the ways in which drones are represented in art, and how they are used to explore themes of security, surveillance, and the human condition. Through its diverse range of perspectives, Small Gods offers a nuanced understanding of the drone's role in our world, and its potential as a tool for envisioning alternative futures and exploring new realms.
