Gilbert Simondon: Information, Technology and Media is a
comprehensive introduction to the work of the French philosopher
Gilbert Simondon. In particular it examines Simondon's original
informational ontology, as developed from a synthesis of
Cybernetics, thermodynamics and French epistemology, The book goes
on to delineate the role this ontology plays in developing an
original account of individuation in the physical, biological and
psycho-social regimes. This is done, in part, through reading
Simondon with and against other figures in these fields such as
Merleau-Ponty and Stuart Kauffman. Additionally, Mills explores
Simondon's contribution to epistemology and invention, including an
analysis of his important theories of the image-cycle and
transindividuality. He also examines Simondon's influence on
several contemporary thinkers, including Bernard Stiegler and Bruno
Latour, before exploring the relevance of Simondon's work for
theorising contemporary media technology.
