Open Humanities Press (http://openhumanitiespress.org/) is launching a
new book series: Immediations
(http://openhumanitiespress.org/immediations.html), edited by Erin
Manning and Brian Massumi.
'Philosophy begins in wonder. And, at the end, when philosophic thought
has done its best, the wonder remains' – A.N. Whitehead
The aim of the Immediations book series is to prolong the wonder
sustaining philosophic thought into transdisciplinary encounters. Its
premise is that concepts are for the enacting: they must be experienced.
Thought is lived, else it expires. It is most intensely lived at the
crossroads of practices, and in the in-between of individuals and their
singular endeavors: enlivened in the weave of a relational fabric.
Co-composition.
Which practices enter into co-composition will be left an open question,
to be answered by the authors in the series. Art practice, aesthetic
theory, political theory, movement practice, media theory, maker
culture, science studies, architecture, philosophy … the range is free.
We invite you to roam it.
Alongside single-author monographs, we are keen to encourage experiments
in collective writing and new forms of co-composition. Co-composition is
an intercession, not a mediation. Begin in the middle. Catch a thinking
in the midst and compose with it. Curate thought in the thinking-doing.
Reinvent the book.
Like all OHP titles, they will be freely available to read online.
