New Directions in Digital Textual Studies

How a lifelong engagement with experimental art informed the brilliant Czech-Brazilian philosopher Vilém Flusser’s early vision of a world dominated by glowing screens. Predicting the importance of technology and images in the twenty-first century as early as the 1970s, Vilém Flusser warned, “the basic structure of our thinking is about to experience a mutation.” The bewitching images and screens that surround us could lead toward a centrally programmed, totalitarian society—or another, better one characterized by dialogue and collaboration among humans and new forms of intelligence. In this book on the idiosyncratic and prescient Czech-Brazilian philosopher, art historian and critic Martha Schwendener explores the profound effect of art on Flusser’s thought. The Society of the Screen reveals how Flusser’s lifelong engagement with experimental practices—from abstract painting and concrete poetry in Brazil to video, cybernetics, and photography in Europe and the United States—as well as his extensive involvement with the São Paulo Biennial informed his belief that we were moving from “history”—a civilization informed by linear writing—into “post-history,” dominated by technical images. The book delves deeply into how Flusser’s ideas evolved, particularly in correspondence and collaboration with artists like Mira Schendel, Fred Forest, Wen-Ying Tsai, Harun Farocki, Louis Bec, and Karl Gerstner.

Digital Culture & Society

Technologies and technological futures are always socially situated, relational, and enmeshed in (dominant) narratives of societal sense-making, which have the power to bring future ideas into material existence. The issue brings together articles exploring popular techno-futures from international and interdisciplinary perspectives, including cultural and media studies, science and technology studies, and related disciplines. The contributors decenter the discussion on socio-technical futures and the role of popular culture, aesthetics and media in their (re)production by focusing on societal tech-future discourses from global popular perspectives.

Digital Culture & Society (DCS)

The Sage Handbook of Digital Labour&nbsp;is a comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted and evolving concept of digital labour. Originally coined in Marxist analyses to explain the exploitation of user data in the digital economy, the term has since expanded to encompass a wide range of paid work influenced by digital technologies. This includes traditional jobs transformed by platforms, new roles emerging in today¿s digital society, and cultural producers like influencers and online creators. The handbook also addresses the material aspects of digital labour, highlighting its dependence on traditional manufacturing and manual labour.
This volume brings together leading scholars from diverse disciplines to examine the intersections of labour and digital technologies. It approaches digital labour as an interdisciplinary field of inquiry, exploring the material and ideological conditions of work in contemporary society. The handbook aims to chart the extensive territory of digital labour studies, covering theoretical traditions, key concepts, emblematic sites of production, normative cultures, and worker subjectivities. It also showcases the spectrum of worker organizing repertoires and tactics across the world.
The handbook is organized into seven sections. Section 1 highlights major theoretical traditions, while Section 2 focuses on the material sites along production chains. Sections 3 and 4 delve into key concepts and sites of production, and Section 5 explores normative cultures and worker subjectivities. Section 6 examines worker organizing tactics, and Section 7 introduces research methods for scholars in the field. The volume concludes with discussions on how digital labour studies can provide unique perspectives to imagine digital futures.
The Sage Handbook of Digital Labour&nbsp;is an essential resource for scholars, practitioners, and students seeking to understand the complexities of digital labour. It provides a comprehensive and nuanced exploration of the field, equipping readers to engage with the theoretical and practical aspects of digital labour in a rapidly changing world.
Part 1: Theoretical Traditions 
Part 2: Material Sites of Production 
Part 3: Key Concepts in Digital Labour 
Part 4: Emblematic Sites of Production 
Part 5: Normative Cultures and Worker Subjectivities 
Part 6: Worker Organizing Repertoires and Tactics 
Part 7: Research Methods in Digital Labour Studies

The Sage Handbook of Digital Labour

This book examines how the Arab Gulf Crisis (2017-2021) led to a robust social media reaction that seemingly - and perhaps perpetually - changed the ways in which religious authority manifests in the digital age. Positioning the Arab Gulf Crisis as a key moment in the transformation of public religious expression in the Gulf, Ibrahim N. Abusharif investigates how religious authority was mobilized through digital media, where the authority of traditional scholars contended with a networked public sphere. This shift was most prominently evident in social media spaces, with the proliferation of texts which used Islamic language and philosophy to both justify and contest the political blockade of Qatar by neighboring states. While the crisis largely unfolded via traditional geopolitical measures - severing diplomatic ties, imposing blockades, and disrupting trade - the digital battlefield became a parallel front in which state actors, religious scholars, and influencers competed for narrative control. Drawing on analysis of media texts by Gulf-based religious figures, the book demonstrates how scriptural allusions, moral framing, and juridical language were deployed to endorse and critique the crisis. Through these analyses, Abusharif challenges prevailing binary frameworks and proposes an interdisciplinary methodology which combines media studies and Islamic studies to more fully understand the complex digital discourses associated with this conflict. Ultimately, this work offers a deep examination of how religion, media, and politics intersect in the digital age and considers how future crises might continue to develop across both physical and digital terrains.

Game Histories

Why and how Atari’s first video game Pong established an industry that shapes consumers’ relationships to technology to this day. Pong is one of the longest, most consistently circulating video games. Released in 1972, it remains at our fingertips as an app from Google Play or Apple App Store, hosted at freepong.org and the Internet Archive, and even released as A Tiny Game of Pong for the Apple Watch. Despite its simplicity and ubiquity, Atari’s Pong encapsulates far more than the history of a video game and iconic game company. King Pong is the first book dedicated to an unassuming game that changed the world. Through the prisms of product positioning, market development, and category creation, Raiford Guins answers the question of why Atari’s inaugural product succeeded and why it endures.&nbsp; Author of Game After and Atari Design, and an excavator of the “Atari landfill” in New Mexico, Guins brings us a unique history that reconsiders the launch of Atari’s Pong from the perspective of the company’s business practices.&nbsp;He&nbsp;follows&nbsp;the young Silicon Valley startup&nbsp;from its early days first&nbsp;positioning&nbsp;its new product within the existing coin-op amusement industry&nbsp;to its&nbsp;establishment of&nbsp;a consumer industry for home video games—a story&nbsp;of&nbsp;remarkable&nbsp;market development innovation. Written with a passion for video games and a historian’s insight, the book animates the business exploits of one of the fastest growing and most influential companies ever.

In einer global vernetzten, digital durchdrungenen Welt genügt es nicht mehr, in geschlossenen Systemen zu denken. Der Blick richtet sich vielmehr auf das, was Systeme verbindet und definiert: das Spiel der Schnittstellen. Als Orte der Übertragung, Filterung, Übersetzung und Sinnbildung werden sie zu den zentralen Erkenntnisobjekten überhaupt. Zwischen Mensch und Maschine, Kultur und Technik, Sprache und Material ermöglichen sie nicht nur Austausch, sondern auch ständige Veränderung. Christian Stein führt interdisziplinäre Perspektiven aus&nbsp;Medien-, Kultur-, Technik- und Naturwissenschaften zusammen.&nbsp;So öffnet er ein neues Denken - eines, das Schnittstellen offenlegt und zu ihrer aktiven Mit- und Umgestaltung anregt.
