Digital Culture
Virtuality, Society and Information
Digital Culture, Virtuality, Society and Information was published in 2002 and was the first anthology published on this subject in the Hebrew language. It deals with the profound implications of the assimilation of new technology in our lives, and offers a theoretical framework for diverse subjects central to the current discourse concerning Digital Culture.
By examining the influence that digital technologies have on the cultural sphere it questions whether those technologies mark a paradigmatic shift in a way that traditional ideas are losing their relevancy and therefore have to be substituted by others, or as being signifies of a much more moderate cultural change as was claimed by many thinkers at the turn of the 21st century.
