An examination of the new technological mediations between the
human sensorium and the planetary media network and of the
aesthetic as an enabler of new modes of knowledge. This series of
interventions on the ramifications of Speculative Realism for
aesthetics ranges from contemporary art's relation to the
aesthetic, to accelerationism and abstraction, logic and design.
From varied perspectives of philosophy, art, and design,
participants examine the new technological mediations between the
human sensorium and the massive planetary media network within
which it now exists and consider how the aesthetic enables new
modes of knowledge by processing sensory data through symbolic
formalisms and technological devices. Speculative Aesthetics
anticipates the possibility of a theory and practice no longer
invested in the otherworldly promise of the aesthetic, but
acknowledging the real force and traction of images in the world
today, experimentally employing techniques of modelling,
formalisation, and presentation so as to simultaneously engineer
new domains of experience and map them through a reconfigured
aesthetics that is inseparable from its sociotechnical conditions.
