OA book: Radio Explorations. Architectonic Studies of Electromagnetic Milieux
Dear list, I would like to share with you the open access book Radio Explorations https://www.transcript-publishing.com/978-3-8376-7337-1/radio-explorations/ which presents an encounter between radio signal recordings, data feminism, and experimental design, offering innovative tools and fostering interdisciplinary collaborations. I argue that an intersectional perspective on information technology is needed, to articulate relevant points of observing, experiencing and being attentive to forms of social and environmental in/justice it may perpetuate. Radio signals incorporate nature and technology in a fascinating mixture of engineering, environment and chance: poems, sounds, and all sorts of messages are encoded and transmitted at large distances as electromagnetic waves. With this book, I explore the cultural practices related to radio communication and information technologies as technical and societal domains. Contributors present post-disciplinary research into the material, logical and onto-epistemological properties of radio signals. These approaches to radio signals specificity and situatedness expand the feminist materialist resistance to dualistic and universal readings of the world. The book is available open access from transcript: ttps://www.transcript-open.de/isbn/7337 If you have questions or if you would like to discuss shared interests in radio technologies and data, please feel free to email me: s.savic@uva.nl Best wishes, -- *Dr. Selena Savic* Assistant Professor for Protohistory of AI and Machines in the Arts University of Amsterdam Arts and Culture - Faculty of Humanities Amsterdam School for Historical Studies (ASH) https://www.uva.nl/en/profile/s.savic <https://www.uva.nl/en/profile/s/a/s.savic/s.savic.html>
