"A provocative and compelling exploration of our digital world as it crashes towards ecological disaster. Counterintuitive, insightful, and imaginative, Capital is Dead is a timely reminder that there are things worse than capitalism--and we may just be living through them." - Nick Srnicek, author of Platform Capitalism "A feral form of commodification walks among us. Whether it is feasting on the remains of capital or hunting on its behalf is a question McKenzie Wark is perfectly equipped to investigate. Consider this your exploratory field guide to a new mode of production." - Kate Crawford, Distinguished Research Professor and cofounder of the AI Now Institute, New York University "McKenzie Wark's call for an experimental, vulgar form of revolutionary approach to digital commodification is a challenging read, full of provocative observation." - Andy Hedgecock, Morning Star "Wark has long been a brilliant scholar of Marxism, Situationism and Poststructuralism, rewriting the canon of critical theory." - Dave Beech, Art Monthly "Thoughtful and compelling.


" - Garrett Pierman, Marx & Philosophy "Wark takes a flamethrower to these ideas through a reading of Marx that burns away the metaphors of phantasmagorical fetishes, such as the commodity form, the spectacle, and false consciousness, that have occupied much critical theory to date." - Vince Carducci, Popmatters.
