Honouring the memory of the late Bernard Stiegler, this edited collection presents a broad spectrum of contributions that provide a complex and coherently articulated image of Stiegler’s thought which reached beyond the boundaries of academic, artistic and experimental techno-scientific enclaves where it had been originally received. Stiegler’s philosophical work encompassed theorization, social diagnosis, planning, practical and territorial experimentation, politics, and aesthetics. In its wake, the essays in this volume celebrate and explore the wealth of this multi-dimensional legacy. They examine the conditions of human life in general, its foundational intermittence, and carry forward Stiegler’s post-phenomenological unfolding of the distinctive spatio-temporalities that weave together the epoch we call ‘present’. Engaging closely with Stiegler’s original impetus for the creation of technologies of care, as well as of communities of knowledge and artistic practice,
