Author: Ludger Hovestadt, Vera Bühlmann (eds.)
This book proposes a way of thinking about digital technology that draws on the new materialism. Using photosynthesis and nuclear fission as examples of processes that are as artificial as they are natural, the author explores how digital technology can be viewed within the paradigm of a ‘communicative physics’. They conclude we can better understand ourselves and digital technology by developing notions of the multifaceted ways energy, form, and intellect interact in global architectonics.
