Opis

Computational media govern our experiences by externalizing our knowledge and memories, mining data from our behaviour to influence our decision-making and creating emotionally rewarding and sensory pleasures. But does that mean human perception is becoming a product of human-machine symbiosis in this new media ecology? This ground-breaking collection explores the ways in which digital information technologies form and influence human perception and experience. Examining the relationship between technological reductionism and the body, it takes on board discursive perspectives from the humanities and brings digital media, affect and body studies into conversation with one another. Written by pioneering authors in the field, this book expands our understanding of human perception, animation, technology and the body.
