The desert is a huge paradox. Beneath its outward appearance of
immensity and silence, are the sounds of various experiments,
mysteries, and utopias. The setting of outrageous true histories,
entertainment oases founded on consumerism and play, and the secret
staging of military power, the desert is far from empty. Instead,
it is full of activity: unexpected, uninhibited, and excessive. Not
subject to barriers and seemingly free of the formal, ideological
or cultural ties of global society, the desert cultivates alternate
architectures, urbanisms, and built phenomena. Through photographs,
essays, and history, this book emerges as an exploration of some of
these phenomena and the protagonists that made them possible.
