On Technology & Memory

Issue editors: Maaike Bleeker with Ric Allsopp

ISSN: 1352-8165 (2012) 17:3

On Technology & Memory engages with the complex interactions between humans and technological developments and how these interactions transform the way memory is shaped. From the first occurrence of tools to the complex interactions between humans and digital technologies, our consciousness, our ways of thinking and imagining, are the product of our co-evolution with technology. On Technology & Memory approaches this coevolution from the vantage point of performance as artistic practice, as embodiment of culturally specific symbolic systems, and as functional technology. The material collected in this issue is a selection of presentations and shifts presented at PSi#17 Camillo 2.0: Technology, Memory, Experience.
