Description
Digital Interfacing Action and Perception Through Technology by Daniel Black explores how we interact with technology as an integral part of our bodily experience. The author examines the role of artefacts in shaping our perception and action, considering how new digital technologies can expand this capacity. Black draws on a range of disciplines to develop a comprehensive theory of human-technology interface, incorporating insights from media theory, ethology, clinical psychology, cultural theory, philosophy, science and technology studies, cultural history, aesthetics and neuroscience. This analytical toolkit sheds light on the ways in which we engage with our environment through digital technologies. By assembling these diverse perspectives, Black offers a nuanced understanding of how we perceive and act upon the world as a body-artefact assemblage.
