Logic Bomb by Steve Beard
Logic Bomb tunnels deep into the collective unconscious of the last ten years, offering a core sample of London's transglobal style culture. A collection of pieces by the writer Steve Beard, Logic Bomb offers a user-friendly mix of celebrity interviews, personality profiles, event reviews, Q&As, industry exposes and conceptual lines of escape. Travelling widely across the full range of the media spectrum - covering print, film, electronica, porn, cyberfeminism, high theory, meta-media, art, rock 'n' roll and drugs - Logic Bomb also features Damien Hirst, William Gibson, JG Ballard, Dennis Hopper, Disney, Marshall McLuhan, William Burroughs, Paul Virilio, Philip K Dick and Elvis. From one of the sharpest writers around, Logic Bomb gives readers the lowdown on what happens after the post-modern fallout. The future starts here!
This is a complex and provocative book that will be devoured by everyone with a serious interest in contemporary culture' Stewart Home ?Seriously smart? i-D
