"""Deleuze and the Map-Image counts among the most exciting and provocative studies we have on Deleuze, art, and new media. Working with a panoply of artists and objects, Jakub Zbedik discerns in new modes of mediation, in digital aesthetics, and in posthuman theory a common and even pervasive cartographic imperative."" --Tom Conley, Abbott Lawrence Lowell Professor of Visual and Environmental Studies and of Romance Languages and Literatures, Harvard University, USA ""Deleuze and the Map-Image: Aesthetics, Information, Code, and Digital Art gives a thorough analysis of Deleuze's conceptualization of mapping and its formative presence in digital aesthetics. Zdebik charts a path into a domain of contemporary art practice in which digital technologies and Deleuze's thinking operate in concert. Further, his theorization of the map-image provides a refreshing new avenue by which to reconsider the critical roots and philosophical importance of digital art."" --Amanda Boetzkes, Professor of Contemporary Art History and Theory, University of Guelph, Canada"
