'Speculative Drawing: 2011 - 2014' - by Armen Avanessian and Andreas Töpfer Presenting fifteen books—from monographs and translations to collections of essays—that emerged from the research platform Speculative Poetics, conceived by Armen Avanessian in 2011. "Speculative Drawing does not provide a shortcut to the theories presented; it does not aim to build a representational relationship between a pictorially correct understanding and a correlative conceptual thought. Instead, the drawings provide an occasion to think about thinking—a speculative thinking and writing in concept and through images." Sternberg Press 2014, 14.5×21 cm, 320 pages, illustrated throughout, clothbound hardcover https://www.sternberg-press.com/product/speculative-drawing-2011-2014/

The dystopian smart house in JG Ballard's The Thousand Dreams of Stellavista (collected in Vermilion Sands) plays back the emotive memories of its former owners to its new ones. It's Bachelard's Poetics of Space deformed. Rather than personally recalled, the poetics are transmitted by the resonant dysmorphia of villa's architectural features.

Some works follow the pulse of music, others trace the invisible currents of electromagnetic fields, the voices of whales, or the inner sound of thought and memory."
