Technology alters how we understand the world
“The particular forms that information takes – graphical and lexical expressions, columns of numbers, or records in a relational database – shape the questions that can be easily asked of it, the kinds of manipulations and analyses it supports, and how it can be used to understand the world.” - Dourish, P. & Mazmanian, M., 2011. Media as Material: Information Representations as Material Foundations for Organizational Practice. In Third International Symposium on Process Organization Studies. Third International Symposium on Process Organization Studies. p. 24.

Thank you so much for your comment. Unfortunately, some people have tried to add comments to sell things and, moreover, have nothing to do with the post. I am sure you would never do that, but to ensure that your comment is relevant, it will be reviewed by a human before appearing on the blog.

Hello, it's interesting to see what you are reading. I'm following your blog because you registered on the 23 Things for the Digital Professional course: http://blogs.warwick.ac.uk/rex23phd11/ As a tutor, I was expecting to read how you are getting on with the Things and to offer you support through your blog.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading about how you are getting on with the Things as that's how the course is designed to work. If you can keep up with a few of them now, we have a catch up week coming so you might find that useful to keep up with all of the Things.
Best wishes,
Jenny Delasalle
