Ce livre propose des éclairages précis sur la façon dont une technologie, essentiellement collective, modifie radicalement la vie de chacun, le lien social même, mobilisant nos repères les plus tangibles : écriture et lecture, identité, présence, propriété, archive et mémoire. Ni utopie ni fausse prophétie, le numérique est la vulgate moderne. Avec ses faiblesses, ses aveuglements, ses richesses et ses promesses, le numérique est une culture pour tous.

Edited by Erkki Huhtamo and Jussi Parikka, with contributions from internationally prominent scholars from Europe, North America, and Japan, the essays help us understand how the media that predate today's interactive, digital forms were in their time contested, adopted and embedded in the everyday.

Summary:
In The Second Self, Sherry Turkle looks at the computer not as a "tool," but as part of our social and psychological lives; she looks beyond how we use computer games and spreadsheets to explore how the computer affects our awareness of ourselves, of one another, and of our relationship with the world. "Technology," she writes, "catalyzes changes not only in what we do(...)

Summary:
In The Second Self, Sherry Turkle looks at the computer not as a "tool," but as part of our social and psychological lives; she looks beyond how we use computer games and spreadsheets to explore how the computer affects our awareness of ourselves, of one another, and of our relationship with the world. "Technology," she writes, "catalyzes changes not only in what we do but in how we think." First published in 1984, The Second Self is still essential reading as a primer in the psychology of computation. This twentieth anniversary edition allows us to reconsider two decades of computer culture--to (re)experience what was and is most novel in our new media culture and to view our own contemporary relationship with technology with fresh eyes.

Depuis le développement de l’imprimerie, la civilisation occidentale vivait dans la culture du livre comme les poissons vivent dans l’eau, c’est-à-dire sans le savoir. Elle avait à ce point imprégné nos façons de sentir et de penser que nous avions fini par la confondre avec la nature humaine. Les technologies numériques nous ont brutalement confrontés au fait qu’il existe d’autres relations possibles à l’identité, au temps, aux autres, à l’espace et aux apprentissages. Et du coup, nous ne pouvons plus penser l’homme, la culture, l’enseignement et l’éducation de la même façon.

Summary:
Todd Presner, David Shepard, and Yoh Kawano put digital humanities theory into practice to chart the proliferating cultural records of places around the world. A digital platform transmogrified into a book, it explains the ambitious online project of the same name that maps the historical layers of city spaces in an interactive, hypermedia environment. The authors examine the media archaeology of Google Earth and the cultural–historical meaning of map projections, and explore recent events—the “Arab Spring” and the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster—through social media mapping that incorporates data visualizations, photographic documents, and Twitter streams.

Summary:
Graphesis provides a descriptive critical language for the analysis of graphical knowledge. In an interdisciplinary study fusing digital humanities with media studies and graphic design history, Drucker outlines the principles by which visual formats organize meaningful content. Among the most significant of these formats is the graphical user interface (GUI)—the dominant feature of the screens of nearly all consumer electronic devices. Because so much of our personal and professional lives is mediated through visual interfaces, it is important to start thinking critically about how they shape knowledge, our behavior, and even our identity.
