- Double-weighted statement
- The book received a contract in 2016 and was written over five years. It is 560 pages in length and contains diagrams produced by the authors. It is considerably longer than the average length of academic books, surveying and discussing very broad areas of art, music and philosophy: performance fictions including mythopoesis and art scenes; science fiction including afrofuturisms, radical feminisms and non-philosophy; technesis including singularity theories, digital and analogue cultures and technogenesis. The book does not splice together two texts but is a work produced by dialogue and multiple perspectives of the entire content of the volume.
