Turbulence and Reconstruction is an anthology of viewpoints on society from the arts and the
sciences. The authors believe that the arts and the sciences are effective spaces to encourage
us to think differently about our outdated concepts of representation and categorization and
reconstruct new potentials about how the designs of the future might benefit our environment
and the survival of our bodies. Essential to all writers is the need to drop our old
disciplinary boundaries to question our interdependent relationship to technology and to
reality. Turbulence and reconstruction are processes that not only affect our representation
and categorization urban nature and energy consumption but also our relation to media and
technology - the digital ideologies of interaction and substitution.
