Digital technologies should be making life easier. And to a large
degree they do, transforming everyday tasks of work, consumption,
communication, travel and play. But they are also accelerating and
fragmenting our lives affecting our well‑being and exposing us to extensive
data extraction and profiling that helps determine our life chances.
Is it then possible to experience the joy and benefits of computing, but
to do so in a way that asserts individual and collective autonomy over our
time and data?
Drawing on the ideas of the ‘slow movement’, Slow Computing sets out
numerous practical and political means to take back control and counter
the more pernicious effects of living digital lives.
