Postcolonial Literature and Land Art in the Anthropocene by Carmen Concilio

“…Coetzee's novel In the Heart of the Country (1976) includes writing with stones in the Karoo desert not dissimilarly from what children do in a popular game, where they draw with stones. Finally, Margaret Atwood provides a memorable example of bioart and ecoart in her novel The Year of the Flood (2009), where insects co-participate in the artistic project, right as South African artist William Kentridge managed to produce drawings and a film with ants. …”

Philosophy of (Media) Dystopia: the Social Life between The Handmaid’s Tale and Black Mirror by Vuk Vuković

“…Are we speaking of anthology Black Mirror which directly deals with these topics and ideas, or Handmaid’s Tale, a series based on the novel Margaret Atwood? Whether we are talking about the technological simulation of consciousness and the psychological implications of the final phase of man’s extensions or dehumanization of (feminine) body and soul in a totalitarian-theocratic state, we are certainly relying on the media and technology, which is the starting point of thinking society, which in both cases can be characterized as dystopia.…”
