| Summary: | "Today, cultural choices are increasingly determined through computational methods. Culture operates within increasingly dense socio-technical systems, or arrangements of people and machines in which neither party holds all the power. How did people come to delegate cultural decision-making to computers and computational processes? And how did culture become practicable and intelligible in computational terms? In Algorithmic Culture, Ted Striphas provides a kind of intellectual history of how culture and computation came to be entangled. From Cambridge, England to Cambridge, Massachusetts by way of Baghdad, this book provides a deeper historical awareness of the critical junctures at which algorithmic culture came to be defined in language long before it materialized in Silicon Valley. The book considers the development of cultural studies and how ideas about culture have been contingent in respect to computation and new technologies. Conversely, ideas about technology, AI, and algorithms are shaped by the words we have used to describe them. In tracing this history through select histories and individuals, Striphas argues that we can better address how our reliance on algorithms is shaping our culture and understanding of the world"-- |
