I notice that while the album
I notice that while the album name is "Women in Technology," you once reference it as "Women and Technology." I make quick typos like that all the time, but I was interested in this one because we have talked a lot about the difference between looking at women in technology versus women and technology. As recently as our Subramanium reading, we saw a similar divergence. At the beginning of feminist science studies, the focus was on studying women IN science. As the field progressed, however, the focus became on women AND science. Before this course, I haven't thought much about how much a single preposition can change the meaning of something. If this album had been called "Women and Technology," would we have taken a different meaning from this?
I was intrigued by your observation that we have not explored how old technologies fit into our new way of thinking. For me, I think that old technologies have become such a constant, given part of my life that it is difficult to see how they influence my thinking. Since I take old technologies for granted, I cannot pinpoint their influence on my point of view. I am curious what other people think about old technologies' role in our new ways of thinking.
