BOOKS with Sami Hammana
Join us for BOOKS, with researcher, writer, artist, and tutor at the Willem de Kooning Academy Sami Hammana. In this edition of BOOKS, Hammana will launch the book The Geofinacial Lexicon, co-edited with Jack Clarke and published by Abstract Supply. The Geofinancial Lexicon is a thought experiment on the literary convergence of earth- and financial systems. It takes its cue from the large number of financial terms that reference phenomena of the natural world. For example protagonists such as ‘Bulls’, ‘Bears’, ‘Doves’, and ‘Hawks’, and phenomena such as the ‘iceberg order’, ‘dead cat bounce’ and ‘vampire squid’. More info
