Variantology 2: On Deep Time Relations of Arts, Sciences and Technologies

Published by Walther König, Köln.
Edited by Siegfried Zielinski, David Link, Eckhard Fuerlus, Nadine Minkwitz. Text by Amir Alexander, Peter Blegvad, Oksana Bulgakova, Andrea Hacker.

What does a thirteenth-century Majorcan missionary have to do with logical machines? Were the astrolabes of the late Middle Ages really only used to calculate the orbits of stars and planets, or were they philosophical instruments? Was the first avant garde in Russia more interested in Jesuit affect theory or H.G. Wells's time machine? Where do radar angels live?
