The mono­graph Time Tracks con­structs anachro­nis­tic and eclec­tic con­stel­la­tions of philo­soph­i­cal con­cepts, bio­graph­i­cal nar­ra­tives and pop­u­lar music. It stages unex­pected encoun­ters between Gilles Deleuze, Prince, Wal­ter Ben­jamin, Franz Kafka, Vilém Flusser, Mar­vin Gaye, Michel Fou­cault, Camille and Mar­shall McLuhan. What brings this wide range of philoso­phers, media the­o­rists, authors, and artists together is a shared con­cern; they all strug­gle with time.
