Biosphere Extension: Solar System Resources for the Earth “
Thursday, October 20, 6:30pm
Longtime collaborators C. Bangs and Greg Matloff present their first artist book, with an introduction by yours truly. “Biosphere Extension: Solar System Resources for the Earth” began with combining the resources of three books and five years consulting for NASA and working as NASA Faculty Fellows with dialogs that have been ongoing since they first met in 1982. The four sections of the book integrate the text of astronomer Matloff with the images composed by artist Bangs, whose feminist ecological art parallels the duo’s work on space and space resources.
