why?
Recommendation by lydia, not to push the feminist agenda but to push the feminist agenda. (The other recommendation was Technofeminism) - impact of code on everyday life.
(An)notations
Prologue
- Reference: Technologies of the gendered body (abt gender implications on information technology)
- Robo Sapiens
Intermediation
- Digital algorithms = language of nature
- What is computation? Turing: Starts with a set of elements and logical operations, expands to systems & structures
- Wolfram: cellular automata: Simple rules KISS can generate complexity → Game of life → ==the computational universe== (life = game → everything can be reduced to rulesets & gamification
- Is it just a metaphor that is becoming the reality or was it always in the (eco)system
- Network centric warfare
- ==Digital philosophy== :world is digital instead of analog
- And can therefore be understood as software Starting to skim tru the pages from page 26 to the end of this chapter
- ==Intermediation== the complex interactions between computer & physical world (not sure about this definition!)
- Needs recursivity, complex feedback loops connect humans & machines.
