Social (and anti-social) technologies

Technology as Mediator of Our Being (Cf. Ison, 2010, pp. 107-112).

i) Technology is relational
ii) Understanding becomes embedded in technologies
iii) Our being is a product of these dynamics

For example; language, institutions, management, projects, etc.



We live within the "ball" of technologies (from Ison, 2010, p. 108).

Ison (2010) further refers to the work of Don Ihde.
