Syntonic Desire

Mind Factory explores a mosaic of ideas and
practices currently surrounding the question of
cognition, mind, literacy, autopoiesis and
tele-technologies, and how these define a
contemporary "human condition." Essays included
in this volume address a range of subjects from
the Abu Ghraib torture photographs, brain
implants and behavioural control, to the
possibility of quantum minds and machine
intelligence, to the technicity of faith,
sintonic desire, ideoplastic materialisation and psychic geographies.

Louis Armand is director of the InterCultural
Studies programme in the Philosophy Faculty of
Charles University, Prague. His books include
Solicitations: Essays on Criticism & Culture;
Techne: James Joyce, Hypertext & Technology; and
Incendiary Devices: Discourses of the Other.
