      abstract = {"In Alien Agency, Chris Salter tells three stories of art  in the making. Salter examines three works in which the  materials of art - the 'stuff of the world' - behave and  perform in ways beyond the creator's intent, becoming  unknown, surprising, alien. Studying thse works - all three  deeply embroiled in and enabled by science and technology -  allows him to focus on practice through the experiential  and affective elements of creation. Drawing on extensive  ethnographic observation and on his own experience as an  artist, Salter investigates how researcher-creators  organize the conditions for these experimental,  performative assemlages that sidestep dichotomies between  subjects and objects, human and nonhuman, mind and body,  knowing and experiencing."},
