Spimes and things

"Spimes are manufactured objects whose informational support is so overwhelmingly extensive and rich that they are regarded as material instantiations of an immaterial system. Spimes begin and end as data. They're virtual objects first and actual objects second."Bruce Sterling, Shaping Things, (2005)

A Social Dimension for Digital Architectural PracticeSocial City

Lest we think Heidegger was content with a comfortable characterisation of things as drawing together meanings, stories, craft processes and communities note his reference to dispute.

“… the Old High German word thing means a gathering, and specifically a gathering to deliberate on a matter under discussion, a contested matter. “ (Martin Heidegger, The Thing, p. 174.)

The OED concurs. A thing is a judicial assembly, and in Scandinavian countries the Thing is the Parliament. Later in the essay Heidegger says:

“Whatever becomes a thing occurs out of the world’s mirror play” (p.182).

Do we presume death comes after life?

What happens to objects that get life after death?

What are zombie objects?

What are ghosts from the future?

How do we talk about agency?
