Edited by one of the leading Paul Virilio authorities this book offers the reader a guide through Virilio's work. Using the interview form, Virilio speaks incisively and at length about a vast assortment of cultural and theoretical topics, including architecture and `speed-space', `chronopolitics', art and technoculture, modernism, postmodernism and `hypermodernism', the time of the trajectory and the `information bomb'. His thoughts on Foucault, Baudrillard, Deleuze and Guattari, the performance artist Stelarc, the Persian War and the Kosovo War, are also gathered together.

`Read Virilio at his spoken best: accelerated, corrosive, prophetic. Virilio is trying to wake up everyone that slumbers as the information bomb disappears the autonomous subject, trivializes democratic politics, and turns Western ways of war into a videogame. Drivign a stake into the heart of the military-industrial-media-entertainment network, Virilio Live could well be the best possible antidote yet for the virtually undead′ - James Der Derian, editor of The Virilio Reader`The spontaneity of the interview form brings otu the best in Virilio. This is an indispensable guide to the work and thought of one of the most important contemporary thinkers. A lively and thought-provoking collection, it will be welcomed by initiates and newcomers alike′ - Professor Kevin Robins, Goldsmiths College, University of London
