This book investigates the complex relationship between modernist avant-garde aesthetics and contemporary military technology. It examines how the perceptual frameworks and artistic innovations of early 20th-century avant-garde movements have influenced, and are reflected in, the development and deployment of modern military technologies, exploring the 'technicities of perception' that shape both artistic and military engagement with the world.

The book is likely to appeal to scholars and students of art history, cultural studies, and military history, offering a novel interdisciplinary perspective. Its focus on the intersection of avant-garde aesthetics and military technology suggests a dense, analytical approach that challenges conventional understandings of both fields. The premise indicates a rigorous examination of perceptual frameworks and their technological manifestations, likely engaging with complex theoretical concepts. The work appears positioned to provoke thought on how artistic movements can inform, or be mirrored by, the development of instruments of war.
