5 : 1 (2024) Hermeneutics of Technology – 9 papers plus one contributed paper

For a long time, hermeneutics was confined to the humanities and arts, to legal and religious studies, and to the exegesis primarily of texts. In recent years, however, the hermeneutics of science and technology came into its own, along with questions of „scientific understanding“ or „hermeneutic Technology Assessment,“ and along with the challenges posed by Artificial Intelligence or quantum technology which appear to elude human comprehension as did the steam engine in the 19th century. Sense-making becomes especially important in a so-called culture of prediction, robustness, and reliability – with hermeneutics a critical method for analyzing and evaluating the various ways of making sense. This extends to the conceptions of technology in particular cultures or the practice of technology assessment. — See below for table of contents. WU Guolin and LIU Dong, guest editors.

4 : 4 (2023) Language, Mind, and Computation in the Metaphors of Cognitive Science – 7 papers plus two contributed papers

This issue is dedicated to the history of the development of computer methods in cognitive science and the role of metaphor in this process.What is the relationship between computer technology and the theory of knowledge which is expressed through metaphorical vocabularies of philosophical and scientific discourse. The authors explore questions about the nature of consciousness, the relationship between mind and body, free will, and the possibility of understanding human activity in terms of machine intelligence. With the problem of subjectivity at the intersection of technological change and semiosis it becomes questionable whether computer metaphors point to properties of the subject or to properties of the method. At this intersection, philosophical questions are becoming interdisciplinary, treated also by scientists and engineers. – See below for table of contents. Pavel Baryshnikov., guest editor.

4 : 3 (2023) Future Writing – 9 papers plus one contributed paper on Dreyfus' Skill Model

Authors were invited to consider writing-the-future along with the future-of-writing. Juliane Henrich and Siegfried Zielinski discuss how future writing also has a past when romantic poets imagine a new language which allows us today to explore data-mining through the lens of copper-mining. Wenzel Mehnert and Stefan Gammel show how science fiction and utopian texts as well as visionary programs for emerging technologies develop strategies of questioning the present by positing an ontologically discontinuous future. Writing and the memory of the hand are becoming obsolete by way of typing and other technical proxies. Geert Lovink and others discuss aesthetic strategies in virtual public spaces. Questions of enactment and embodiment in the digital world are complemented by a presentation of the art of shibari as a form of writing.. – See below for table of contents.

4 : 2 (2023) Mythologies: The Spirit of Technology in its Cultural Context – 11 papers plus two contributed papers

A new translation of Nikolai Berdyaev’s 1933 essay "Man and Machine" and two critical commentaries by Walker Trimble and Carl Mitcham set the stage. The history of electricity in Russia, narratives of resource scarcity in Germany, an intercultural comparison of COVID-tracing apps provide concrete exemplars – complemented by studies of memory in the museum and of Chinese conceptions of progress. A general account is offered in Gernot Böhme's last published essay – a critique of Yuval Noah Harari‘s juxtaposition of a natural and an imagined order. Finally, Michael Kurtov provides a comparison of techno-religious cultures, one that revolves around the inevitability of major breakdowns (Russia) and one that believes in the efficacy of minor repairs (the West). Two contributed papers concern anthropological issues in human-machine relations and the use of linguistic concepts in design. -- See below for table of contents. Coreen McGuire and Natalia Nikiforova, guest editors.

4 : 1 (2023) Open Contributions – 10 papers

Ten contributions to ongoing discussions: A paper on Ernesto de Martino extends the analysis of Technology and Magic in issue 3:4. Two papers are the first in a series on hermeneutics of science and technology – on the authors and readers of experiments, and on “understanding” quantum mechanics. Three papers query the conflation of technology and language – on “computer languages,” on “composition” in music, language, and programming, on Wittgensteinian interpretations of technogrammar. Origami and the art of folding collapse three-dimensional complexity onto a surface, providing a technical method for mapping distance and proximity within a view of the social. Three empirical studies consider how technical gaming cultures can creatively expand and transform language, how language acquisition benefits from team-work on technical platforms.

3 : 4 (2022) Mimesis and Composition – 11 papers

Mimetic protocols of repetition and reproduction are linked to the inexhaustible multiplicity of compositional patterns in all domains of human activity. There are two thematic poles investigated by the different contributions: science and technology on the one hand, and on the other hand enchantment and magic. These two domains, for a long time opposed, appear as different imitative ways of composing the world within a horizon of meaning. In this perspective, phenomena such as play or experiences such as sound or smell, take on a driving theoretical role. Viewed as a whole, they constitute the lemmata of a new and more comprehensive fundamental anthropology. – See below for table of contents. This collection of papers is associated with the Padova Summer School on Philosophy and Cultural Studies of Technology. Natascha Adamowsky and Fabio Grigenti, guest editors.

3 : 3 (2022) Technologies in a Multilingual World – 8 papers plus one contributed paper

Technological creativity has been described as active adaptation to the world. What if this world is a multilingual world – an environment in which we are surrounded by a multiplicity of languages and codes, more than anyone can produce or understand but which have to be navigated nonetheless? Aside from all the „natural languages“ such as the many variants of spoken, written, or signed English and all the pidgins and local dialects, these include the language of the ticketing-machine as well as the language of powerpoint, the language of traffic signs as well as technologically enhanced communication means known as augmentative and alternative communication. – See below for table of contents.

3 : 2 (2022) Instructions – 8 papers plus two contributed papers

Do technical processes unfold as instructed in that they execute a program or in that their parts perform prescribed motions? Inversely, do technologies instruct the behavior of users in that they establish a script which users need to follow if they want to reap the benefits of technology? And what is instruction in the first place? Papers consider the distinction between program and code in software engineering as well as a Wittgensteinian distinction of “instructing in” an “instructing to.” There are close observations of YouTube instructional videos, of different notations for recording theatre and dance, of Bruno Latour’s visualization practice, and of linguistic practices in regard to instruction. The collection is rounded off by an analysis of robotic grasping and the challenge to instruct the machine to employ tacit knowledge. – See below for table of contents.

3 : 1 (2022) The Construction of the Robot in Language and Culture – 14 papers

“Robot” – on the history of a term that was introduced a little over 100 years ago by Czech author Karel Capek. Several papers analyze the pre-history and reception of a word that was simply translated as "worker" in Soviet Russia but became a new kind of thing, namely a "robot" in many other languages. Two interviews with Japanese robotics engineer Hiroshi Ishiguro and with German philosopher Markus Gabriel follow up on a previous encounter of theirs. Mark Coeckelbergh's 2011 paper "You, robot: on the linguistic construction of artificial others” prompted six responses and a reply to his critics by Mark Coeckelbergh. – See below for table of contents.

2 : 4 (2021) Technology as Language: Understanding Action in a Technical Condition – 7 plus one papers

Actions are understood in reference to reasons and causes which are formed in a social setting. The hermeneutics of action takes on a further dimension, however, when technical agency and technological activity are brought into play. Technology provides hermeneutic access and affords understanding for example of biocitizenship through genetic technology and language. Discussions include the grammar of behavior, Günther Anders' conception of promethean shame, and our understanding of language for human and machine neural networks. – See below for table of contents. Alexander Nesterov and Anna Denima, guest editors.

2 : 2 (2021) Forensic Examinations: Terms and Techniques – 8 papers plus four contributed papers

Forensic Examinations – not from the point of view of semiotics, the philosophy of signs and traces but by way of forensics scientists who seek to consider philosophical dimensions of “technology and language” in their empirical research. Forensics involves the reading and interpretation of traces, and many early success-stories of forensic expertise concern the identification of forgeries. In today‘s forensic science, procedures and protocols establish the terms of technical practice.- See below for table of contents. Dmitryi Mokhorov and Anna Mokhorov, guest editors.

2 : 1 (2021) In the Beginning was the Word: The Word as Technical Artefact – 8 papers plus one contributed paper

The word is a technical object in a variety of ways, most famously perhaps as the „redeeming word“ known from fairy-tales, transformative spells, and magical thinking. Its current incarnation is the password or encryption key which opens doors to secret places and new worlds. Another prominent field of inquiry is naming as a technological activity especially where this involves formal ontologies, but also in the design process and the creation of new machine/user interfaces. – See below for table of contents.

„Technology and Language“ is an interdisciplinary peer-reviewed open-access scientific journal, published at Peter the Great Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University, Scopus-listed as of January 2024. It provides philosophical, cultural, historical perspectives on the manifold relations of technology and language.

The journal promotes new ways of thinking about technology and about language. It is theoretically innovative by considering technology in terms of syntax and semantics and principles of composition, and by considering language in its dependence on techniques and technologies. These theoretical considerations will be informed by a broad range of interdisciplinary empirical investigations of the many relations of technology and language in our contemporary world – addressing the fields of history, linguistics, cultural studies, philosophy, anthropology, literary and media studies. Therefore, the purpose of the journal is also to bring together an international community of researchers who explore the interfaces of technology and language.

Daria Bylieva and Alfred Nordmann are editors for scientific content, cover-designs by Maureen Belaski.
