Abstrakt
Oscillating between the algorithmic and the representational, the human agent navigates its environmental niche in a way which is conducive to its further psychological, social, and biological existence. Yet how transparent and how predetermined is such a dynamic? Where are the points of contact, friction and overlap within the variegated pulls and counteractive flows inherent in the choreography of the "democracy of objects," and how conducive is such an ecology of relations to the continuing survival of the human, here understood as an intersectional juncture between the biological, technological, cultural, semiotic etc.?
