Cooking Sections, Salmon: A Red Herring (Isolarii 1)
isolarii revive an extinct literary genre, the Renaissance "island books" of the same name. Together, they form an archipelago of today's avant-garde movements and figures.
SALMON: A RED HERRING shows that disregarding color as a mere feature of matter risks taking life on Earth for granted. It accounts for how we ended up in a world where sparrows molt pink, dogs turn blue, and honey glows maraschino red; where pharaohs tint paint, laptops flavor fog, and farms feed color. Adapted into the eponymous Turner Prize–nominated exhibition at Tate Britain, this book launched an international campaign against salmon farming.
Forewords by Hannah Landecker, Bruno Latour, Hans Ulrich Obrist and David Zilber.
