Reviews
"The work of Michael Richardson is like a four dimensional cartography to navigate the hyperaesthetics of our post-photographic present." -- Eyal Weizman, coauthor of * Investigative Aesthetics: Conflicts and Commons in the Politics of Truth *
"Foregrounding the ethical dimensions of the convergence between the fields of security and ecology, Michael Richardson explores whether witnessing is taking place beyond the boundaries of the human. By making a fantastic case for the reversal of the humanist concept of witnessing, Richardson impacts what kinds of research questions can be asked across the disciplines." -- Jairus Victor Grove, author of * Savage Ecology: War and Geopolitics at the End of the World *
