@peterpur, very good reflections - “It is an impossible proposition to create a technical system that does not impose its structures on the people using it.“ - I’ve been making a very similar argument about the introduction of Teams in schools (-> learning is made the work of our children, which is a quite horrible idea...)

while writing a little blurb about how using moodle can mess up your idiosyncratic ideas about teaching and learning, i started meandering down a little rabbit hole about why i’m doing what i’m doing while teaching. too long for a toot, so, a blog post:

i gave a talk at a norwegian university (NTNU) about our »ways of thinking« journey/course. with 30 minutes, the talk was rather long-ish, but i feel it is one of the most compact telling of the overall story.

foolishly, they let me have the recording, so i can pester you with it 😈

thanks @peterpur, worth watching the whole thing, although its a little tech-bro, AI doomerism and anothropomorphising (that’s me saying its not engaging with some fundamental philosophical questions about what it means to being in world...) but: really well made argument and rather shocking in places (the prospect of visualising dreams from fMRI ...)

Through examples, we trace responsibilities across time from milieus of innovation, to design practices and in use. We discuss how "doing responsibilities" may serve the prime purposes of our moral practices and sketch methodological, theoretical, and designerly consequences

We start by reviewing the philosophical origins of responsibility and discuss views in . Rethinking these, we develop a notion of responsibility as “being done” rather than being had: enacted in assemblages, rooted in relations rather than entities, and temporally dispersed

Against the backdrop of the increasing agential capabilities of digital tech, we argue for relational ontologies to understand how they become actively interwoven in what happens in the world. But what, then, can responsibility mean?

New Article! @vfuchsberg and I wrote about what happens to the notion of responsibility in tech when applying a posthuman, relational and performative lens: Doing Responsibilities in Entangled Worlds

Attending a conference called at the @oeaw@bird.makeup in Vienna with many interdisciplinary talks on the interface between the digital and the living... a lot of talk about the cyborg and I wonder how much trans-humanism and AI-hype there will be. Anyway, I will inject a dose of in a short talk tomorrow...

Yes! Finally managed to submit a revised manuscript for that has been really hard work and took the whole summer. The reviews were excellent, though, and in the best sense created a space for scientific discourse. Fingers crossed...

Indeed, we really witness how language and metaphors shape realities to be imagined, researched and built. Case in point, this editorial introducing the new Elsevier journal: Computers in Human Behavior: Artificial Humans

is upon us, some expectation management: while is the natural emotional state at such a conference, be reminded, if you see 3 papers that inspire you and have 3 encounters that result in a meaningful conversation that makes you think - you are doing very well!

I am looking for studies (, I assume) that look at the influence of the milieu (social, economic, policy, public narratives...) on digital technology that is created? Thank you!
