Summary:

"Digital Energetics argues that media and energy require joint theorization-not only in their potential to universalize but also in the many contingent and intermeshed relations that they bind together across contemporary informational and fossil regimes. The coauthors analyze how data and energy have jointly modulated the character of the materiality and labor of digital systems in a warming world"-- Provided by publisher.
