Electronic waste occurs not just in the form of discarded computers but also as a scatter of information devices, software, and systems that are rendered obsolete and fail. Where other studies have addressed ""digital"" technology through a focus on its immateriality or virtual qualities, Gabrys traces the material, spatial, cultural, and political infrastructures that enable the emergence and dissolution of these technologies. In the course of her book, she explores five interrelated ""spaces"" where electronics fall apart: from Silicon Valley to Nasdaq, from containers bound for China to museums and archives that preserve obsolete electronics as cultural artifacts, to the landfill as material repository. All together, these sites stack up into a sedimentary record that forms the ""natural history"" of this study. Digital Rubbish: A Natural History of Electronics describes the materiality of electronics from a unique perspective, examining the multiple forms of waste that electronics create as evidence of the resources, labor, and imaginaries that are bundled into these machines. By drawing on the material analysis developed by Walter Benjamin, this natural history method allows for an inquiry into electronics that focuses neither on technological progression nor on great inventors but rather considers the ways in which electronic technologies fail and decay. Ranging across studies of media and technology, as well as environments, geography, and design, Jennifer Gabrys pulls together the far-reaching material and cultural processes that enable the making and breaking of these technologies. 410 0$aDigital culture books. 606 $aElectronic apparatus and appliances$xHistory 606 $aElectronic waste 615 0$aElectronic apparatus and appliances$xHistory. 615 0$aElectronic waste. 676 $a363.72/88 686 $aSCI026000$aSOC000000$aSOC052000$2bisacsh 700 $aGabrys$b Jennifer$0481054 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910132638103321 996 $aDigital rubbish$9254314 997 $aUNINA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress LEADER 03735nam 22006853a 450 001 9910433237703321 005 20250513224735.0 010 $a9783737010603 010 $a3737010609 024 8 $ahttps://doi.org/10.14220/9783737010603 035 $a(CKB)5410000000003981 035 $a(ScCtBLL)ce69d409-626c-4cdb-83eb-54ae8f715ad0 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/39669 035 $a(Perlego)2328347 035 $a(EXLCZ)995410000000003981 100 $a20211214i20192020 uu 101 0 $ager 135 $auru|||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aÖsterreich-Ungarns imperiale Herausforderungen $eNationalismen und Rivalitäten im Habsburgerreich um 1900 /$fFritz Trümpi, Peter Techet, Wolfram Dornik, Catherine Horel, Jens Boysen, Martin Gabriel, Katharina Mann, Gabor Egry, Clemens Ruthner, Heiko Brendel, Stephan Lehnstaedt, Borislav Chernev, Günther Kronenbitter, Hannes Leidinger, Eszter Gantner, Jan Lewandowski, Heidi Hein-Kircher, Milos Reznik, Bernhard Bachinger 205 $a1 ed. 210 $cVandenhoeck & Ruprecht$d2019 210 1$a[s.l.] :$cVandenhoeck & Ruprecht,$d2019. 215 $a1 online resource (1 p.) 225 1 $aSchriften aus der Max Weber Stiftung, Band 2 311 08$a9783847110606 311 08$a3847110608 330 $aO?sterreich-Ungarn la?sst sich nur verstehen, wenn nationale Lebenswelten mit politischen, milita?rischen, wirtschaftlichen und ku?nstlerischen Beispielen der imperialen Herrschaft verglichen werden. Die Autorinnen und Autoren verbinden theoretische U?berlegungen zu O?sterreich-Ungarn als Imperium bzw. Kolonialmacht mit der Analyse konkreter Beispiele der imperialen Herrschaftspraxis. Ein besonderer Fokus gilt dabei Sta?dten als Laboratorien gebauter, intellektueller und gesellschaftlicher Diskurse u?ber imperiale und koloniale Vorstellungen. Der vorliegende Band pra?sentiert damit Antworten auf die Frage, wie ein Imperium u?berhaupt mit den andauernden Herausforderungen von innen und außen umgehen und seine eigene Existenz sichern kann. The book combines theoretical reflections on Austria-Hungary as an empire and colonial power with the analysis of concrete political, military, economic and artistic examples of imperial rule, which come to fore in particular by comparison. A special focus is on cities as laboratories of built, intellectual and social discourses on imperial and colonial ideas. This volume presents answers to the question of how an empire can handle the ongoing challenges from inside and outside and secure its own existence. 410 $aSchriften aus der Max Weber Stiftung, Band 2 606 $aHistory / Europe / Austria & Hungary$2bisacsh 606 $aHistory 615 7$aHistory / Europe / Austria & Hungary 615 0$aHistory. 700 $aTru?mpi$b Fritz$0864169 702 $aTechet$b Pe?ter 702 $aDornik$b Wolfram 702 $aHorel$b Catherine 702 $aBoysen$b Jens 702 $aGabriel$b Martin 702 $aMann$b Katharina 702 $aEgry$b Gabor 702 $aRuthner$b Clemens 702 $aBrendel$b Heiko 702 $aLehnstaedt$b Stephan 702 $aChernev$b Borislav 702 $aKronenbitter$b Gu?nther 702 $aLeidinger$b Hannes$f1969- 702 $aGantner$b Eszter 702 $aLewandowski$b Jan 702 $aHein-Kircher$b Heidi 702 $aR?ezni?k$b Milos? 702 $aBachinger$b Bernhard 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910433237703321 996 $aO?sterreich-Ungarns imperiale Herausforderungen$92564894 997 $aUNINA
