It is the first of four related monographs exploring silica aerogel nanoscience in a free-dimensional practice. Moving from early plastographic investigations and “objet trouvé” logics to threshold projects including \u003cem\u003e(Nephele)³\u003c\/em\u003e, MIT-based development, and NASA\/JPL experiments, the volume documents how elastic method emerges: a disciplined practice where optics, fragility, and process become the work’s core syntax. The book builds the methodological base for the four-volume set: early material experiments; emergence of plastography and elastic method; transitions from atelier to laboratory; and the first institutional thresholds (MIT; NASA\/JPL). It integrates process-aware discussion (sol–gel lineage, drying logics, optical behavior, handling\/encasing constraints) with a dense visual archive.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2026-10-11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783032217769\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: \u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46313899131020,"sku":"9783032217769","price":85.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783032217769","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
