About this title

Synopsis

Sam Lewitt (born 1981) investigates the relations between language and technological products. This volume documents a work that takes the form of a disposable, self-contained and unsustainable evaporation system for a magnetic fluid used in a myriad of manufacturing applications, cheap fans and industrial magnets.
