The Order of Things features contributions by Geoffrey Batchen, Tina M. Campt, and Christopher Phillips; a conversation between Brian Wallis and Artur Walther; and a selection of seminal writings on photography and seriality by George Baker, Walter Benjamin, Michel Foucault, Ulrike Schneider, Allan Sekula, and Joel Smith.
