Technologically Mediated: Thinking the Human/Technology Relations Conference

In our present era, the alleged division between humans and technology is becoming increasingly tenuous. Human beings may be said to be fundamentally entangled with technology, and this inseparability suggests that technology not only mediates our interactions with the world and with each other, but also actively constitutes and reshapes our very being as we, in turn, shape it. As technological agency continues to expand, traditional definitions of the human demand critical re-examination.

The objective of this multidisciplinary one day conference is to bring together academics to explore what it truly means to be human in a technologically mediated, more-than-human world. Recognising the omnipresent, constitutive, and, at times, disruptive role of technology in our lives, this seminar seeks to foster an open dialogue; one that embraces diverse perspectives on the nature and implications of technological mediation.
