Reading and conversation with
Mathias Denecke | Lotte Warnsholdt
Without metaphors, we wouldn’t be able to talk about and with computers. They translate algorithmic processes into understandable icons on the screen, reveal how we interact with technologies, and mirror our desires and fears. The project From Net, City, World to Cloud, Market, Sea: Metaphors of the Internet investigates how we imagine the internet and speak of our daily experiences online.
This talk with Mathias Denecke and Lotte Warnsholdt will engage with the materiality of data flows as a species of the oceanic.
From Net, City, World to Cloud, Market, Sea is a project by Zentrum für Netzkunst e.V. and funded by Hauptstadtkulturfonds.
