| description | This open access collection gathers thinkers, media practitioners, scholars, and artists to bring attention to how our relational selves, lives, and lifeworlds emerge within a range of digital platforms, media environments, creative media practices, and performances to probe what it means to become subjective by evolving in and with a world of relational technologies . As biometric artificial intelligence, datafication procedures and algorithms increasingly saturate and reconfigure human and more-than-human realms, technologies, and selves co-evolve in deepest relationality. Nearly every form of existence has today become subject to computational harvesting and utilization. This renders our relations with technologies—those we actively compose and those that are forced upon us—ever more complex and inconceivably entwined. Topics covered in this collection include: face monitoring and modelling practices, quantified applications, writing techniques, biometric identifications of age and health, AI informed decision making, biohacking, voice recognition, social media, and algorithmic cultures of datafication. The overarching motivation is to generate new forms of understanding, but also “counter-measures” for negotiating this relational condition existentially, socially, and artistically. Thus, offering a unique contribution to the debates on data selves, Relational Technologies provides manifold possibilities for a co-existentialist understanding of technological developments of datafication and biometrics. This way the volume brings posthumanist critique into conversation with the young field of existential media studies, in search of new inflection points of change and transformation through new modes of knowing, reflecting, and crafting media futures of relationality.
