Abstract

Digital cultures1 are performative cultures. This assumption is illustrated by the
ubiquitous and invisible infrastructures that constitute them, which are interstratified
by so-called ‘smart things’ (Engemann/Sprenger 2015; Günel/Halpern
2016), creating a socio-technical environment, in which performances of the
technological come about. While human users may not be able to comprehend
the entire technological performance, they are without a doubt intertwined with
it. The digital performs, the human reacts to the agency the technologies suggest,
and vice versa: “Performing (the) Digital”.
