Journal Article
The Public Sensoriums of Pulsa: Cybernetic Abstraction and the Biopolitics of Urban Survival
2008
Overview
New Design Futures, which, like Gene Youngblood's 1970 Expanded Cinema, conceived the artist as an intermedia \"ecologist\" facilitating the design of open systems, structures, and spaces amenable to collective participation and transformation over and against the \"closed system\" strictures of modernist medium-specificity in art and architecture alike.8 Like Burnham 's thought, this countercultural strand was heavily informed by McLuhan, Fuller, and John McHale, situating the ecological activity of the artist within expanded planetary networks of energy and information imagined to be approaching a state of perilous disequilibrium in which \"species survival\" itself was at stake.47 Like Pulsa, these groups eschew the revolutionary impulse of Baudrillard in favor of a long-term engagement with actually existing urban systems.
