The principal aim of Networking Ecologically Smart Territories (NesT) is to test the hypothesis that digital diversification, explored as noodiversification and technodiversification as the conditions of resilience of human societies, holds the key to a reinvention of contemporary, proletarianising, industrial economics. Based on the idea of contributory research and concepts developed by Bernard Stiegler and the Collective Internation, NesT attempts to articulate local territorial situations with international concerns in the context of the Anthropocene.
2021–2024, Ania Malinowska (PI), Technologies for Love. Cultures of Feeling and Intimacy under Affective Media, Polish National Science Centre (NCN), grant name and number: OPUS 2020/37/B/HS2/01455.
The project aims to re-evaluate and describe the new cultures of feeling and intimacy that have developed alongside the increasing mediation of human interactions. Responding to the recent lockdown-related debates about the future role of technology for human relations in circumstances when the non-contact status is not an alternative but a default, this project concentrates on technological endeavors around affective programming to provide a comprehensive study of the new forms of loving which came with the new media affordances and the new physical reality that follows the advent of digital technocracy.
