Behind Brian Massumi's Affective Event (Brian Massumi, Architectures of the Unforeseen: Essays in the Occurent Arts)

Benjamin Slavík

Benjamin Slavík's review critically presents Canadian philosopher Brian Massumi's book Architectures of the Unforeseen, which examines the concept of affective events and virtuality in the context of procedural architecture and multimedia art through the prism of Deleuzian philosophy. Despite certain reservations about the author's stylistic epigonism, the reviewer highlights the stimulating nature of his affirmative theories for the analysis and perception of the film image.
