Overview
On the complex interrelations between individuals and technological systems within the context of our progressively networked societies.
Intersubjectivity Vol. IV explores the shifting stakes and responsibilities of intersubjective exchange—among individuals, between individuals and machines, and among machines—within increasingly networked social, political, and informational systems.
While recent technological advancements highlight the advantages of decentralization, they also reveal how their functionalities limit our autonomy, guide us along paths dictated by capital, and even incite authoritarian tendencies. What tangible impacts does the digital realm impose on physical bodies, and who is most affected by these consequences? Through case studies, media analyses, object lessons, experimental texts, and other interdisciplinary methods of inquiry and critique, contributors examine our current frameworks and envision potential futures.
