Luke Munn, "Countering the Cloud "
English | ISBN: 1032374152 | 2022 | 98 pages | PDF | 9 MB
How do cables and data centers think? This book investigates how information infrastructures enact particular forms of knowledge. It juxtaposes the pervasive logics of speed, efficiency, and resilience with more communal and ecological ways of thinking and being, turning technical "solutions" back into open questions about what society wants and what infrastructures should do.
