Art as Information Ecology reveals art as a mode of information that resists settling into the equilibrium of an answer, generating sustained difference and systemic diversity that cascades across multiple scales. Based on close readings that reconceive and connect the typically opposed information theories of Claude Shannon and Gilbert Simondon, as explained through a series of artistic case studies from American art of the 1960s, the book proposes that art is information in its aesthetic or indeterminate mode--information oriented less toward offering answers than toward opening possibilities
