{"product_id":"berressem-hanjo-eigenvalue-9781501335181","title":"Eigenvalue","description":"Eigenvalue provides the first history of 'eigenvalue' by building an important bridge between the hard and the soft sciences. Originally a mathematical term, Hanjo Berressem applies Eigenvalue, which roughly translates to proper value, to the media studies discipline for the first time, providing a philological history and line of development across the sciences through to contemporary cultural studies. Berressem's groundbreaking work is organized into 2 books, with the first book broken down into six topical areas - mathematics, physics, cybernetics, biology, literary studies, cultural studies. The second book discusses the place of eigenvalues in sound, light and literature, specifically, Alvin Lucier's experimental composition \"I am Sitting in a Room,¿? Bill Morrison's eight-minute experimental film Light is Calling and the literary works of Thomas Pynchon. Berressem's thought-provoking philology is an important reference point for readers seeking an authoritative introduction to a term that connects other key ideas in contemporary debate.","brand":"Bloomsbury 3PL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53802060284246,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9781501335181_1.jpg?v=1791167372","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/berressem-hanjo-eigenvalue-9781501335181","provider":"momox","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
