Abstract
This book asks what is at stake in the stilling of still to a stop? In a world of transductive activity, how can it be that stillness has been rendered an ontological impossibility or at the very least denied its own ontology?Such a denial might hint at why stillness has the feel of being so extreme and so terminal a condition. But what would happen if we looked for the still that stood relationally through multiple sources rather than just through the lens of mobility and immobility, speed and slowness?
