According to the blurb, the exhibition "charts the coming together of diverse physical and social sciences in the framework of post-Second-World-War US governmental and military imperatives. Investigating cybernetics, the history of the Internet, the rise of 'Web 2.0' and mass intelligence gathering – using drawings, alchemical diagrams, photographs, text works and 78 specially designed tarot cards".
Well, I couldn't have put that better myself!!!
I just love her drawings and illustrations and have ordered a copy of the book so that I can reconfigure history and map out hypothetical future narratives for myself.
If you have never been to the Science Museum... what are you waiting for? Go go go – it is fabulous and full of amazingly interesting stuff (for want of a better word!).
And whilst you are there check out the Hidden Heroes exhibition too.

You've inticed me to pay a visit.
Nice blog Mo... I have added it to my list of London links.
Science Museum has had an exterior clean up and Exhibition Road a complete make over. Both very impressive.
(sorry I'm not the MO with the blog)
Yes, I should have mentioned that – Exhibition Road looks fantastic these days
