Ickles, Etc.

In this novel, noted contemporary science fiction writer Mark von Schlegell
imagines architecture in the year 2090 through the character Henries Ickles, Los
Angeles s most misunderstood info-architect. Technological, environmental and
social catastrophes have changed the meanings of culture, nature, and landscape
forever. But in what remains of the international urban scene, architecture still
refuses to admit it hasn t been modern since the early 20th century. In the fifth
book from the Critical Practice series, von Schlegell puts the sci-fi back in notions
of speculative aesthetics. A collection of interconnected comical stories set
in New Los Angeles, Danish Expansion, Nieuw Nieuw Amsterdam and 1970s
St. Louis, Ickles, Etc. explores the future of architectural practice in light of
developments in climatology, quasicrystalography, hyper-contemporary art,
time travel, and the EGONET. With artwork by Louise Lawler. Following New
Distopia, this is von Shlegell s second novel to be published by Sternberg.
