Anthropogenic Markers as Environing Media
Media scholar Adam Wickberg outlines how knowledge about the environment and media technologies have always evolved in tandem; the history of anthropogenic markers can therefore be understood as a process of environing media.

With the establishment of universal standards around 1948, the world is transformed into a technocratic space of transactions. Theoretical and artistic contributions contour the technical standards of an infinitely circulating present.

Sensing Air and Generating Worlds of Data
As environments increasingly become computational so does computation become environmental. Jennifer Gabrys shows how the instrumentation of the planet with sensor devices produces specific forms of concretizations that have a life of their own and contour the earthly space anew.

Seminar: Techno-Metabolism
In the course of its productive and consumptive functions, the technosphere transforms energy, materials, and information. It uses energy in part to transform information, while information guides the metabolism of energy.

Seminar: Algorithmic Intermediation and Smartness
What forms of futurity, speculation, and life do algorithmic intermediations produce? To explore this it seems expedient to focus on “smartness,” a term legitimating—as in the “smart home”—the increased introduction of computation in social life.
