Making Time for Digital Lives

Beyond Chronotopia

Herausgeber: Kaun, Anne; Lohmeier, Christine; Pentzold, Christian

Beschreibung

This collection explores theories of time in the digital world and examines whether the ontology of data resists slowness and how the digital revolution promised a leveling of the playing field. Assessing the emerging initiatives of slowing down, this book investigates the role of the digital in ultimately reinforcing neo-liberal temporalities.
