The vol­ume Plu­ral­iz­ing Rhythm aims to rid rhythm of its harm­less, nearly eso­teric, rep­u­ta­tion as a cos­mic uni­fier by under­stand­ing it in the light of the con­tem­po­rary medial turn. It con­sists of con­tri­bu­tions that com­bine the polit­i­cal, aes­thetic, musi­cal and the­o­ret­i­cal dimen­sion of rhythm, by per­form­ing a close analy­sis of text and objects from con­tem­po­rary arts, music and pol­i­tics. In short, Plu­ral­iz­ing Rhythm com­pli­cates, dis­turbs and plu­ral­izes the notion of rhythm.

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.
