What is the digital? The question is typically answered via reference to things -- things like Twitter, Playstation, or computers in general. Indeed, the definition of “digital” is often given through various descriptions of the latest commercial ventures and the industrial techniques that provide their footing. Yet the digital is not a description of a media artifact so much as it is a specific mode of thinking and being. In this lecture we will define the digital explicitly, not merely by reference to actually existing media technologies, but also, and perhaps more importantly, as a specific event within philosophy.
Bio:
Alexander R. Galloway is a writer and computer programmer working on issues in philosophy, technology, and theories of mediation. He is author of several books on digital media and critical theory, including The Interface Effect (Polity, 2012), Excommunication: Three Inquiries in Media and Mediation with Eugene Thacker and McKenzie Wark (2013), and Laruelle published in October 2014. For ten years he worked with RSG on Carnivore, Kriegspiel and other software projects.
Galloway has given over two hundred talks both across the U.S. and in ten countries around the world. His writings have been translated into eleven languages. He is recipient of a number of grants and awards including a Creative Capital grant (2006) and a Golden Nica in the 2002 Prix Ars Electronica (Linz, Austria). The New York Times described his practice as "conceptually sharp, visually compelling and completely attuned to the political moment."

Riveting, inductive, and rendered so distinctly as to be utterly comprehensible at first-listen-what a pleasure! Not to mention brilliant and impressively widely inclusive… I did find myself wondering about the apparent absence of direct references to fingers, as such, and in turn: mappings. (thinking Tim Hawkinson here) But that’s perhaps a further direction of inquiry, not a negative criticism.
