Opis

This book uses a number of performance practices—dance, theatre, music, stage magic, and (perhaps surprisingly) philosophy—as metaphors for thinking about technology.

Recenzje

"This unique and innovative book changes the very framework for doing philosophy of technology by introducing and developing a performance-based method of analysis. It is a moving investigation of how machines move, how this movement shapes our understanding of their social position and status, and how we, in turn, are moved by our technology." – David J. Gunkel, Northern Illinois University, USA
