Book Description

1853434922 978-1853434921 June 1, 2000
We are surrounded daily with crashing vehicles, economies, computers and bodies. At the intersection of speed, development, design and automation, the crash punctuates cultural and technological change with the automated mundanity of death, risk and destruction. Yet the only studies conducted into crashes concern safety measures and the mythology of prevention. This volume aims therefore to investigate crashes to the fullest extent of their invasion of the everyday, to document their commemoration and productivity, and to offer accounts of the significance of these extreme yet banal moments.
