DESCRIPTION

Book synthesize Wyndham Lewis's 1914 publication "Blast" and Marshall McLuhan's 1969 response "Counterblast". It includes essays that took Blast and Counterblast as their starting point. A book about the suspension of time and space, about the future and about the possibility to move freely along all coordinates simultaneously, about the realization that everything is impossible but lies open before each and everyone of us, about miracles, about the inevitable desire to dominate the world, about violence and about death as a lifelong friendship.
