Relating to Things: Design, Technology and the Artificial
Editat de Heather Wiltseen Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 mai 2020
Case studies include Amazon's Alexa, the Internet of Things, Pokémon Go and Roomba the robot vacuum cleaner. Authors explore everything from the care work undertaken by objects, reciprocal human/machine learning, technological mediation as a form of control, and what it takes to reveal things that tend to be hidden and that often (by design) conceal the ways in which they use us.
As a whole, Relating to Things is a collaborative philosophical inquiry into the nature and consequences of contemporary technological things. It is a design inquiry into the current nature of the artificial, and possibilities for how things might be otherwise.

Recenzii
This is one of the first collections to take seriously our changing relationship with non-human actors, yet in doing so it is also a profoundly human book. As disturbing as it is enlightening, Relating to Things is full of insight and curiosity about what it means to live in an increasingly sentient material world. Essential reading for anybody trying to make sense of the politics of relationality in design and the coming world of active objects.
Relating to Things is an extraordinarily rich exploration of how humans and technologies act, depend upon, and guide one another. Emerging at the intersection of philosophy of technology and design studies, this collection helps us to see how we have come to relate to our creations and how our freedom to design and redesign these relations can open the door to very different futures. This is an essential read for those wanting to gain a deeper sense of how to live with technologies that ask more, give more, take more, and share more with us every day.
