Meaning and Making:
The Role of Technology in Our Lives

Technology is something we make. But in turn it makes us; it shapes our lives. In our days, we have witnessed dramatic changes, an enormous growth in resources accessible through technology, but also great challenges – a reordering of our lives in view of these new technological paradigms. We will discuss, with the help of some very accessible texts and one documentary, the way in which technology is reconstructing the ways in which we relate to others, to the world, to ourselves, and God.

This seminar will be for undergraduates only, but will be accompanied by a movie screening on April 9th open to all of the Berkeley Institute community.
