Digital communication forces us to look not only at technical protocols but also at protocols
of the human mind and nervous system. Over the last 30 years, artists, researchers, and activists, brought together by the
Institute of New Cultural Technologies in Vienna, have explored alternative histories of media and the emergent digital (un)consciousness.
Their perspectives, seemingly marginal during times of techno-utopianism, are now critical as we are traversing new
zones of monsters.
