Description: This text offers an alternative aesthetic genealogy for digital culture. Eschewing the Cartesian aesthetic that aligns the digital with the disembodied, the formless, and the placeless, it seeks to 'materialize' digital culture by demonstrating that its aesthetics have reconfigured bodily experience and reconceived materiality.
