“Accessible, engaging… This examination of how artists represent the pulse tunes us to the way our heartbeats throb through us, with each other, on a throbbing earth, in a throbbing cosmos.”

—Espace Art Actuel
“For those with an interest in both contemporary artistic creation and the intersection between visual and performing arts, science, and technology, this book comes recommended.”
