Transmission and the Individual Remix

Tom McCarthy is the author of Tintin and the Secret of Literature and four internationally celebrated novels: Remainder, Men in Space, C, which was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and the Walter Scott Prize, and Satin Island, which was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and the Goldsmiths Prize. In 2013 McCarthy was awarded the inaugural Windham-Campbell Literature Prize by Yale University. His creation, in 1999, of the International Necronautical Society has led to installations and exhibitions in galleries and museums around the world, from Tate Britain and the ICA in London to The Drawing Center in New York.

"Enjoyably off-the-cuff" -- Robert Collins Sunday Times "It's a bold and thought-provoking mission that replaces the originality of the muse with the remixing of an ever-present background signal" -- Rev'd Carl Wilkinson Financial Times
