Towards a critical theory of alternative media
In this contribution, we warn against being too optimistic about the actual democratic effects of notions like ‘‘civil media”, ‘‘community media” ‘‘alternative media”, ‘‘grassroots media”, ‘‘participatory media”, or ‘‘participatory culture”. We argue that in contemporary society, which is characterized by structural inequalities, an understanding of alternative media as participatory media is i...
متن کاملTowards a Critical Neuroscience of Political Theory
In the current academic climate, there is no shortage of discourses proclaiming a veritable neurorevolution: that new insights into the functioning of the human brain will lead not only to novel possibilities of technoscientific intervention, but also to a radical transformation of our sense of what it is to be human in general. More striking still is the enthusiastic appropriation of this new ...
متن کاملTowards a Wavelet Information Theory
Abstract—A new interpretation for the wavelet analysis is reported, which can is viewed as an information processing technique. It was recently proposed that every basic wavelet could be associated with a proper probability density, allowing defining the entropy of a wavelet. Introducing now the concept of wavelet mutual information between a signal and an analysing wavelet fulfils the foundati...
متن کاملEmergent information. Towards a unified information theory.
This paper proposes the restoration of information theory by means of a philosophy of evolutionary systems. What this philosophy implies for the conception of information may be called a multi-stage model, comprising both the history and the ordering of information processing by real-world systems. Such a unifying information concept may assist suitable research in the coming field of informati...
متن کاملTowards A New Information Theory
The modern information theory is established by Claude Shannon around the middle of the past century. The key challenges at the time were how to ensure a reliable transmission of signals. A prototype example is enough to illustrate the point. A signal represented by a binary sequence is to be transmitted over a noisy channel, the channel may randomly flip the bit with a given error rate. At the...
