Further Trace Effects of the Post‐Anthropocene
Bratton, Benjamin H
Further Trace Effects of the Post‐Anthropocene - Wiley 2019 - Vol 89, Issue 1, 2019:( 14-21 p.)
No geological age lasts forever. After the Anthropocene, in which human activity became the dominant influence on the planet, the Post‐Anthropocene is dawning. What does this entail? California‐based architectural and design theorist Benjamin H Bratton, who holds professorships and leads teaching programmes in the US, Switzerland and Russia, offers a list of this new era's trace effects that are each both revelatory and catastrophic, from self‐composing landscapes to conversing machines and from human exclusion zones to the apparatus of geocinema.
