Sk–interfaces Membranes in Art, Technology and Society: FACT
Autor J Hauser, Jens Hauseren Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 ian 2008
In recent years, a trend toward skin analysis has emerged in the practice of several artists who make use of biology, bioarchitecture, and self-experimentation in their own work, and Jens Hauser has been at the center of much of this evolving genre of artistic practice. SK-INTERFACES is an engaging, challenging, and thought-provoking approach to how current technologies are changing our perception of the body, the self, and the interaction between bodies, as well as a multidisciplinary approach to the topic of skin, involving art, science, politics, philosophy, and architecture.

Recenzii
"Hauser supports the ethical and sociocultural issues that surround the subject matter of the artworks presented with sound philosophical arguments and good references. His synopsis of the Sk-interfaces artists' work presents an overview of what is happening in the bio-arts, introducing new definitions of bio-art as well as its current themes and concerns. . . . The book is beautifully designed and produced."
