Summary:
In On the Animation of the Inorganic, Spyros Papapetros examines ideas about simulated movement and inorganic life during and after the turn of the twentieth century--a period of great technical innovation whose effects continue to reverberate today.

He argues that empathy--the ability to identify with objects of the external world--was repressed by twentieth-century modernist culture, but it returned, projected onto inorganic objects such as machines, automobiles, and crystalline skyscrapers.
