Cambridge Digital Humanities

Hyperdigital Designs Workshop in Cambridge, June 14 2023.

SG2, Alison Richard Building

Digital technologies have become a deeply integrated aspect of our lives. From speaking to friends and ordering food to finding our way around, all our daily acts are now mediated by the digital. This deep integration promises to expand our agency, yet it also shapes and constrains it in ways that we may not recognise or welcome. Increasingly, we are confronted with a dilemma: either to withdraw from or engage with the use of digital technologies, as these often tend to disperse our attention and hinder our self-awareness. In the space of possibilities between anti-technological suspicions and anti-human desires for assimilation, we aim to critically reflect on the creative origins and free use of the cybernetic grammar of digital computers.The ‘Hyperdigital Designs’ workshop, taking place at the University of Cambridge, will explore creative reflections upon the grammar of digital computers. Building upon the collaborative ‘How to Play with Fire’ project that began at the 2022 Diverse Intelligence Summer Institute, the ‘Hyperdigital’ announces a higher reflection on the creation and use of digital media for human freedom. Beyond the fixed opposition between the Postdigital and the Digital, the Hyperdigital exceeds so as more radically to enter and accelerate the free use of the digital — whether among the creators of digital systems, or from the oldest creator of the idea of the digital itself.S﻿peakers:Adelheid Bjornlie
