Critical Theory Emphasis

HUM 270
"Theories: Technology & Culture"
Mark Poster

Technology has been changing both in quality (from mechanical to "intelligent" machines) and quantity (extension from factories to homes and all locations of daily life).  All cultural products are now mediated by advanced technologies.  In this context a retheorization of technology is under way; this course will question the changing relation of culture to technology.
A tentative syllabus for this course and a listing of required and recommended texts can be found at http://www.hnet.uci.edu/mposter.
