CURRENTLY READING: ON THE EXISTENCE OF DIGITAL OBJECTS

January 25, 2020 by Natasha Chuk

‘When the qualities of a digital object disappear — as when we delete them layer by layer within our computers — by the end we find there is no longer anything there. If we were to find something remaining, it would likely be some record or trace acknowledging that something did exist there previously or perhaps take the form of missing links and bugs generated during the course of its disappearance. Is the space of a digital object “thinkable”? This question also motivates us to investigate further the very concept of space itself’ (p. 110).
