mongrel matter delivers an eclectic collection in aesthetic education.
aesthetic literacy is an experiment in philosophy of culture, a book-exercise which has taken years to realise, turning into a maze wandering through three volumes, free-styled by one hundred and fifty authors.
our book is authored by professors, near acclaimed and aspiring writers, journalists and storytellers, artists and aliases, and those who will not write and create again.
aesthetic education is your right, reader, you shall be guided across the everyday domains of arts and politics, city and home, bodies in cosmos, through monolithic, gone-by and oppressed cultures, to learn that aesthetics is a part and parcel of our lives and future.
