The concluding volume of Ken Hollings' exploration delves into the concept of Trash Aesthetics, offering personal insights and reflections. It examines the interplay between art and everyday discarded objects, challenging traditional notions of beauty and value. Through a unique lens, Hollings invites readers to reconsider the significance of the overlooked and the discarded in contemporary culture, making a compelling case for the importance of embracing imperfection and the unconventional in artistic expression.

A journey deep into the heart of the trash experience: tales from the underground and exploitation movie scene in America during the 1960s.

Astronomy is another form of cinema. Time is fragmented and extended. Matter becomes light in motion. The camera remains fixed, looking outwards into the darkness, while the earth moves beneath our feet. A carefully constructed text in sixty numbered sections, The Space Oracle reinvents the history of astronomy as a new form of astrological calendar. This radical retelling of our relationship with the cosmos reaches back to places and times when astronomers were treated as artists or priests, to when popes took part in astral rites and the common people feared eclipses and comets as portents of disaster. Panoramic and encyclopedic in its scope, The Space Oracle brings astronauts and spies, engineers and soldiers, goddesses and satellites into alignment with speculative insights and everyday observations. The universe, Hollings argues, is a work in progress - enjoy it.

A subtle and sometimes disturbing account of how technology has impacted upon human culture.
