Is the Digital Age and technology a blessing or curse? We are undeniably living in the Digital Age, but unlike the Industrial Revolution, the transition into the digital era has been more subtle. The world of algorithms has become nearly invisible to the everyday person, and we are left wondering when the Digital Age became the norm. This raises the question of how to assess the traditional relationship between human beings and technology, as well as how to understand our sense of self. ‘Digital Stockholm Syndrome in the Post-Ontological Age’ by Mark Jarzombek will help you delve deeper into the complex relationship between technology and humans. He argues that the study of human existence calls for a new scientific approach: algorithmic ontology. From philosophy and psychology to social media and environment – the book draws on many sources that are deeply interlinked with ourselves. The author believes that interrelationship is not only a positive development because he highlights how technology can control human beings by manipulation and broader the political and social implications of this phenomenon. It is becoming increasingly challenging to define what it means to be human as we navigate this new reality. ‘Digital Stockholm Syndrome in the Post-Ontological Age’ highlights that major corporations, governments, and hackers that control and manipulate the data produced in this new reality must be seen as addicted to data. Human beings are the objects of this addiction, and the algorithmic world is a heat-producing-seeking world that captures and exploits the life pulse of data. Ultimately, this book is not just about technology and capitalism but about systems of dependency. It explores the ways in which we are bound to the Digital Age and how we can understand our place within it. It challenges us to question our relationship with technology and the ways in which it is shaping our sense of self. For anyone who wants to understand the complexities of the Digital Age and its impact on human beings - ‘Digital Stockholm Syndrome in the Post-Ontological Age’ by Mark is for you. It is available on the website and on Amazon. Media Contact More NewsView More
