Description

This collection is the first book to comprehensively analyse the relatively new and under-researched phenomenon of ‘ruin porn’. Featuring a diverse collection of chapters, the authors in this work examine the relevance of contemporary ruin and its relationship to photography, media, architecture, culture, history, economics and politics. This work investigates the often ambiguous relationship that society has with contemporary ruins around the world, challenging the notions of authenticity that are frequently associated with images of decay. With case studies that discuss various places and topics, including Detroit, Chernobyl, Pitcairn Island, post-apocalyptic media, online communities and urban explorers, among many other topics, this collection illustrates the nuances of ruin porn that are fundamental to an understanding of humanity’s place in the overarching narrative of history. About the Author Siobhan Lyons is a media lecturer at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. Her book Death and the Machine: Intersections of Mortality and Robotics, was published by Palgrave Pivot in 2018. She has also been published in Philosophical Approaches to the Devil (2016), Westworld and Philosophy (2018), and Understanding Nietzsche, Understanding Modernism (2018).
