Technology and Touch addresses the development of a range of new
touch technologies, both technologies that we reach out to touch
(like iPhones and iPads) and technologies that touch us (such as
new prosthetics, smart clothing and robots). Cranny-Francis
explores how this development helps us to connect with and
understand our world, and ourselves. This everyday practice, or
biopolitics of touch, is exemplified in a range of art works that
deploy touch and allow us to examine the nature of being and of
meaning. Cranny-Francis also refers the biopolitics of touch to the
study of new touch technologies, exploring their capacity to have
us reflect on old fears and prejudices, as well as challenging our
incorporation into technologies and networks that may be unethical
or deeply compromised.
