This book offers theoretical and practical insight into posthuman social science research methods, addressing new challenges in computational culture. Philosophy and theory from media studies, software studies, and science and technology studies (STS) are used to make sense of cultural trends and empirical experiments.

Elizabeth de Freitas is Professor and Co-Founder of MIXI, Adelphi University's Manhattan Institute for Studies of STEM and the Imagination, USA. She works across disciplines, developing creative and critical research methodologies for the social sciences, including mapping and other visual methodologies. With expertise in Science and Technology Studies, and the history and philosophy of mathematics, her research explores the power of speculative thought in social inquiry, and the role of algorithmic thinking in control societies. Her work has been funded by the Canada Council for the Arts, the Toronto Arts Council, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, the US National Science Foundation, the UK Economic and Social Research Council, and the Spencer Foundation.
