Times of the signs


Reading - and loving - this new book by Eric Sadin. In it he outlines his work on "the nature and impact of the sudden contemporary transformation of our relationships to text and to signs, brought about notably through the dual expansion of digital and telecommunication networks".

Visually stunning, carried out mainly in Kyoto ... it is stunning. If you are interested in photography, digital communication, urban theory, semiotics and information this is a must-read.

Go here for an interview with Eric Sadin.
