Evolutionary Operating Systems

Abstract

“Evolutionary Operating Systems” (http://www.op-sy.com/) explores the evolution of human perception through the emergence of senses more finely attuned to data. Data generates a dynamic mirror image of our world, reflecting, in sharp contrast and high resolution, our biological, ecological and social activities. As our biological senses have reached their evolutionary limits we increasingly delegate our perception of the world to instruments and processes that define new resolutions and complexities. In delegating these processes we also delegate responsibilities to things that do our seeing for us.
