  1. My review of the book "The Philosopher of #Palo_alto: Mark Weiser, #Xerox_PARC, and the Original Internet of Things" by John Tinnell has been published. A very readable book, especially where it leaves the biographical and becomes more systematic and structural #IoT, #internethistory #UbiComp: muse.jhu.edu/article/933130

  2. Just finished my review of John Tinnell’s „The philosopher of #PaloAlto: Mark #Weiser, #Xerox_PARC, and the original #internetofthings“. For me the most relevant insights of the book are *not* those that deal with Weiser’s biography, but those that explain how the nascent concepts of the computerization of the human environment emerged in a multi-layered figuration of actors and their experimentation with technologies. The review will be published in „Technology & Culture“ #IoT #ComAI
