def- relational aesthetics

October Magazine, 110

There was this term “relational aesthetics” critics threw around in the 90’s to explain the type of art that was being made. The idea of relationship to objects in the carrying of meaning. Could that be similar to what Hayles was talking about in explaining quantum physics - the objects aren’t of focus any longer but the relationships between them?

I am just going to do a google search for that term and see what I come up with.
