More about the book
The book explores the relationship between information infrastructures and the knowledge they produce, contrasting values like speed and efficiency with communal and ecological perspectives. It challenges the notion of technical solutions, prompting readers to reconsider societal goals and the purposes of infrastructures. By framing these issues as open questions, it invites a deeper reflection on the implications of how we organize and interact with technology in our lives.
