Desiring Machines

by Richard Hertz

Desiring Machines is a series of exotic, erratic, erotic stories about the L.A. artworld. Desiring Machines is a humorous montage of the guises and permutations of desire and desiring. The non-linear lives of the protagonists are described through their descriptions, reflections, and conversations, all embedded in "assemblages of subjectivity."

Desiring Machines presents life in the L.A. artworld as a relentless series of navigational strategies for understanding and acting out one's fantasies and obsessions.
