Dazzling and appropriately overwhelming, 'The Extreme Self' is new from 'The Age of Earthquakes' authors Shumon Basar, Douglas Coupland and Hans Ulrich Obrist

Featured spreads are from The Extreme Self, the new, multilayered, collaborative graphic-novel-esque guide to accelerated current-day “reality” by Shumon Basar, Douglas Coupland and Hans Ulrich Obrist—three of this ever-more perplexing era’s most preeminent thinkers. Pairing images by 70 of the world’s foremost artists, photographers, technologists and musicians along with memes and phrases, questions and short texts by the authors, this is a timely analog manual for the insanity of now.
