Sport and Serres

Stefan at Traditio has posted a great article that connects football and Serres. The motion of the ball, the movement of individual players, and a great video segment of Zidane all make this worth reading and viewing.

Serres appears to be a very keen sporting enthusiast and this make an intriguing connection between complexity, synthesis, messengers and the ideas he has so richly developed around those themes over the years.

Serres makes quite a few appearances in my book A Philosophy of Sport, due out from Reaktion in September 2011.

Thanks for the heads up. Your book is now on my desk, awaiting less thesis-intense days!
