  6. RFID: Human Agency and Meaning in Information-Intensive Environments

    The chapter focuses on the impact of so-called “ubiquitous computing” on human cognition. She analyzes the consequences of “reality mining” by RFID (radio frequency identification) tags that are currently being embedded in product labels, clothing, credit cards, and the environment. The amount of information accessible through and generated by RFIDs is so vast that it may well overwhelm all existing data sources and become, from the viewpoint of human time limitations, essentially infinite. Hayles argues for understanding the constitution of meaning as a “multi-layered distributed activity,” as a result of “context-specific processes of interpretation that occur both within and between human and non-human cognizers.”

  7. Epistemology of Disruptions: Thoughts on the Operative Logic of Media Semantics

    Jäger’s essay, going beyond the idea that transcription is a fundamental procedure of cultural semantics, reveals some of the principles that underlie the practices of cultural reconceptualizations attempting to show that and how they are characterized by an epistemology of disruptions.

  9. after emmett: a dispersion of ninetiles

    And's work is intended as a new-media tribute to Emmett Williams, one of the first concrete poets and a leading member of the Fluxus conceptual art movement (its adherents included Yoko Ono and the electronic-art pioneer Nam June Paik).

    The poem pays homage to Williams's own "The Voy Age," a 1975 piece composed of 100 word squares that diminish in size as the work proceeds. By the final page, the grid is so small that it appears to be a period.

  10. The Tulse Luper Journey

     

    The story starts in 1928 with the finding of Uranium in Colo- rado, and ends in 1989 with the fall of the Berlin Wall. It tells the adventures of a man, Tulse Luper, a writer and project-maker who spent his life “under lock and key” in several parts of the world and archived his life in 92 suitcases. Tuned to the author’s characteristic style, it is an encyclopedic project, but one that responds in a unique way to the stimuli of new visual languages and narrative formats. Because of this, it is accomplished in different media (a television series, numerous DVDs, movie trilogy, VJing performance, web site, online game, a library of 92 books, various theater events and exhibitions).
