"This text here might be rendered on a screen. It could appear on paper as well. I have　written it on a computer. As you are reading it, something　is functioning as an　interface. Although I do not know exactly what this　thing　is, I know for certain that there is　something　here, slipping your mind as you read this text." This knowledge and slipping　away questions the sustaining　support of digital objects:　It aimed to challenge the habitualisation towards digital devices, the forgetting of the physical　interface that leads to the supposition of digital immateriality, by making the computer　apparent as an absurd thing that escapes language. The author positions himself among these strange and aloof digital things　and their effects.　

Inspiring research approach to the analog - digital interface

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This text might be rendered on a screen. It could appear on paper as well. I have written it using a computer. As you are reading this text, some thing is functioning as an interface. Although I do not know exactly what this thing is, I know for certain that there is some thing here, slipping your mind as you read this text. This knowledge and this slipping away is the subject of this book. This research project questioned the sustaining support of digital objects: it aimed to challenge the habitualisation towards digital devices, the forgetting of the physical interface that leads to the supposition of digital immateriality. By handling computers as absurd things that escape language, the author sought to position himself among these strange and aloof digital entities and their effects. ; Wahrscheinlich lesen Sie diesen Text auf einem Bildschirm. M�glicherweise aber auch in gedruckter Form, auf Papier. Geschrieben habe ich ihn auf einem Computer. W�hrend Sie diesen Text lesen, fungiert etwas zwischen Ihnen und mir als Interface. Worum es sich bei diesem Etwas handelt, kann ich nicht genau wissen. Was ich jedoch sicher wei�, ist, dass dieses Etwas da ist und dass es sich Ihrer Aufmerksamkeit gerade entziehen muss, damit Sie diesen Text lesen k�nnen. Dieser Entzug und dieses �bersehen von Interfaces bilden den Gegenstand dieses Buchs. Es stellt die Frage nach dem tragenden Grund digitaler Objekte. Je selbstverst�ndlicher digitale Ger�te werden, desto unsichtbarer und k�rperloser scheinen sie zu werden. Desto plausibler wirkt die Behauptung digitaler Immaterialit�t. Indem er Computer als absurde, sich der Sprache entziehende Dinge umkreist, sucht der Autor nach einer Haltung zu ihren seltsam fremden K�rpern und dem, was sie bewirken.
