Digital Theory
Digital Theory argues that the digital is theoretical. It proposes a powerful new approach to the often overlooked conceptual side of the digital, starting with a minimal definition of the digital as a form of mediation using discrete units. Pushing the understanding of the digital beyond its interpretation as sheer consumer electronics and instead working with that conceptual definition, the three essays in this volume explore digitality’s relation to thinking, signs, and difference, each bringing out distinctive new aspects of the digital’s profound theoretical potential.
