The 21st century has seen a complete change in the way life operates on this planet. We are at the cusp of the 4th Industrial Revolution that will be based on the code, data or information based social and economic system. In the digital age of intelligent machines, rampant mechanization and automation of all biological and physical phenomena, technology is literally a body invader, penetrating consciousness, and reshaping our perception in cybernetic loops of information. Human subjectivity has become so deeply and inextricably embedded with technology that the post-human is born at the interstices of data and flesh, erasing the traditional demarcation between man and machine. This calls for alternative ways of thinking about humanity and its environments, a new way of embracing change and a new way of understanding ourselves.
