Invitasjon til TIK-seminar: Technical Objects

Dear all, 

Next Wednesday, Professor Bernadette Bensaude Vincent will be giving a presentation on 'technical objects¡¯ as they have been conceptualised and used in the French tradition -originally the philosophy of technology and later on STS.

Bernadette is an anthropologist and philosopher. She recently co-edited this volumen:https://books.google.no/books?id=Eas0DgAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false -with great contributions/authors  (see contents).

A background for this seminar is the work of Gilbert Simondon, particularly ¡°On the Mode of Existence of Technical Objects¡± (published originally in French in 1958) - https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/on-the-mode-of-existence-of-technical-objects <https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/on-the-mode-of-existence-of-technical-objects>

Hoping to see you all there! -
