Hello world!

The Humanities and Technology Camp bridges a gap well traversed in most of our daily lives. Smartphones simultaneously connect us to news, weather, and train timetables.  Television media outlets plug Twitter and blog posts during their telecasts. Corporations and their ads use GPS to target certain demographics on buses, planes, and trains. Our world is joined at the hip, connected by terabytes, USB ports, and modems. In a world of self-driving cars and augmented reality head mounted displays, not to mention all manner of artificial organs, how do theorists continue the work of exploring the human condition? As merged as we are with different forms of technology, does our definition of human change?  This THATCamp queries the incredibly shrinking space between humanity, technology, the role each has in the other, and the effects all may have on our increasingly linked world.
