Rethinking Assistive Technologies: Users, Environments, Digital Media, and App-Practices of Hearing
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2021
Against the backdrop of an aging world population increasingly affected by a diverse range of abilities and disabilities as well as the rise of ubiquitous computing and digital app cultures, this paper questions how mobile technologies mediate between heterogeneous environments and sensing beings. To approach the current technological manufacturing of the senses, two lines of thought are of import...... hiện toàn bộ
If and Then: A Critique of Speculative NanoEthics
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 31-46 - 2007
Most known technology serves to ingeniously adapt the world to the physical and mental limitations of human beings. Humankind has acquired awesome power with its rather limited means. Nanotechnological capabilities further this power. On some accounts, however, nanotechnological research will contribute to a rather different kind of technological development, namely one that changes human beings s...... hiện toàn bộ
Crossing the Line – “Science” and “Decisions” Facing Emerging Technologies

The Ethics of Technology: How Can Indigenous Thought Contribute?
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 17 Số 1 - Trang 1-13 - 2023
The ethics of technology is not as effective as it should. Despite decades of ethical discussion, development and use of new technologies continues apace without much regard to those discussions. Economic and other forces are too powerful. More focus needs to be placed on the values that underpin social attitudes to technology. By seriously looking at Indigenous thought and comparing it with the t...... hiện toàn bộ
What It Takes to Be a Pioneer: Ability Expectations From Brain-Computer Interface UsersAbstract Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are envisioned to enable new abilities of action. This potential can be fruitful in particular when it comes to restoring lost motion or communication abilities or to implementing new possibilities of action. However, BCIs do not come without presuppositions. Applying the concept of ability expectations to BCIs, a wide range... ... hiện toàn bộ

Sunscreens with Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Nano-Particles: A Societal Experiment
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 4 - Trang 103-113 - 2010
The risks of novel technologies, such as nano(bio)technology cannot be fully assessed due to the existing uncertainties surrounding their introduction into society. Consequently, the introduction of innovative technologies can be conceptualised as a societal experiment, which is a helpful approach to evaluate moral acceptability. This approach is illustrated with the marketing of sunscreens contai...... hiện toàn bộ
Beyond Implications and Applications: the Story of ‘Safety by Design’
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 79-96 - 2009
Using long-term anthropological observations at the Center for Biological and Environmental Nanotechnology in Houston, Texas, the article demonstrates in detail the creation of new objects, new venues and new modes of veridiction which have reoriented the disciplines of materials chemistry and nanotoxicology. Beginning with the confusion surrounding the meaning of ‘implications’ and ‘applications’...... hiện toàn bộ
Engaging Narratives and the Limits of Lay Ethics: Introduction
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 4 - Trang 133-140 - 2010
How can one discover the ethical issues associated with nanotechnologies? One heuristic is to tend closely to the ethical reflections of lay publics and the ways in which these are informed by experience with technological innovation, technology governance, and the (broken) promises of visionary science and technology. A close collaboration between social scientists and philosophers took this heur...... hiện toàn bộ
Taking Care of the Symbolic Order. How Converging Technologies Challenge our Concepts
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 269-280 - 2009
In this article we briefly summarize how converging technologies challenge elements of the existing symbolic order, as shown in the contributions to this special issue. We then identify the vision of ‘life as a do it yourself kit’ as a common denominator in the various forms of convergence and proceed to show how this vision provokes unrest and debate about existing moral frameworks and taboos. We...... hiện toàn bộ
