The interface, Hookway proposes, is at once ubiquitous and hidden from view. It is both the bottleneck through which our relationship to technology must pass and a productive encounter embedded within the use of technology. It is a site of contestation -- between human and machine, between the material and the social, between the political and the technological -- that both defines and elides differences. A virtuoso in multiple disciplines, Hookway offers a theory of the interface that draws on cultural theory, political theory, philosophy, art, architecture, new media, and the history of science and technology. He argues that the theoretical mechanism of the interface offers a powerful approach to questions of the human relationship to technology. Hookway finds the origin of the term interface in nineteenth-century fluid dynamics and traces its migration to thermodynamics, information theory, and cybernetics. He discusses issues of subject formation, agency, power, and control, within contexts that include technology, politics, and the social role of games. He considers the technological augmentation of humans and the human-machine system, discussing notions of embodied intelligence. Hookway views the figure of the subject as both receiver and active producer in processes of subjectification. The interface, he argues, stands in a relation both alien and intimate, vertiginous and orienting to those who cross its threshold. 606 $aTechnology$xPhilosophy 606 $aInterfaces (Physical sciences) 606 $aHuman-machine systems$xPhilosophy 610 $aCULTURAL STUDIES/General 610 $aDESIGN/General 610 $aDIGITAL HUMANITIES & NEW MEDIA/General 615 0$aTechnology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aInterfaces (Physical sciences) 615 0$aHuman-machine systems$xPhilosophy. 676 $a601 700 $aHookway$b Branden$01528974 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790927003321 996 $aInterface$93772958 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03119nam 22005415 450 001 9910586582303321 005 20240628122829.0 010 $a9783031085338$b(electronic bk.) 010 $z9783031085321 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-08533-8 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC7069929 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL7069929 035 $a(CKB)24342434900041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-08533-8 035 $a(EXLCZ)9924342434900041 100 $a20220804d2022 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aEmbodying Adaptation $eCharacter and the Body /$fby Christina Wilkins 205 $a1st ed. 2022. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2022. 215 $a1 online resource (184 pages) 225 1 $aPalgrave Studies in Adaptation and Visual Culture,$x2634-6303 311 08$aPrint version: Wilkins, Christina Embodying Adaptation Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2022 9783031085321 320 $aIncludes bibliographies and index. 327 $aChapter 1:Introduction -- Chapter 2:The Acting Body -- Chapter 3:Bodily Knowledge -- Chapter 4:Character Infusion -- Chapter 5:Embodying Identities -- Chapter 6:Shaping the Psyche. 330 $aThis book explores the impact of the body on the mediation of character in adaptations. Specifically, it thinks about how identity is shaped by the body and how this alters meanings of adaptations. With an increasingly digital world, the importance of the body may be seen as diminishing. However, the book highlights the different political and social meanings the body signifies, which in turn renders character. Through a discussion of adaptations of sexuality, race, and mental difference, the mediation of character is shown to be tied to the physical. The book challenges the hierarchies in place both for the understanding of character, which privileges the actor, and in adaptations, which privileges the original. The discussion of the body, character, and adaptation asserts that the meanings the physical has in its shaping of, and by, character in adaptations reflect the way in which we position our own bodies in the world.
