Racism, sexism, the dominance of the global art market, the de-emphasis of theory and the humanities in university curricula, and the invasion of privacy through digital profiling are just a few examples of the normalization and governmentalization of the digital economy. The widespread protests against American and British involvement in the Iraq War, for instance, failed to produce significant results, highlighting the need for more effective forms of resistance in the twenty-first century. In response to this challenge, artist and writer Warren Neidich has created a thought-provoking and timely Glossary of Cognitive Activism, which seeks to update the epistemological foundations of resistance. Cognitive capitalism posits that wealth production is the result of a brain that is highly attuned to hyper-branded, designed sensibilities. This project proposes that diverse aesthetic production can play a crucial role in creating diverse neural maps and network configurations as an antidote to this dominant paradigm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 134 x 201 x 25 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781912475360\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 Enlarged edition\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Warren Neidich","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":45937960681722,"sku":"9781912475360","price":14.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1715368714302_book.jpg?v=1715594173","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/glossary-of-cognitive-activism-for-a-not-so-distant-future-9781912475360","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
