Study Project: Digital Realities: Its Vices and Virtues (Part I)

Beschreibung

In the span of merely a few decades, the fabric of human interaction and societal dynamics has undergone a profound transformation. Until very recently, we lived in a corporeal reality that was shaped by face-to-face interactions and thus dependent upon the physical proximity of geographically constrained local communities. In the wake of the digital transformation, this is supplemented, if not replaced, by a mode of existence in digital realities that are shaped by and dependent upon global connectivity and instant communication. Not always for the better: As critics keep arguing, digital realities, particularly through and in the context of social media, can erode genuinely human connections, with the shallow and contrived nature of our online identities and interactions causing cognitive and emotional deficits, mental or physical health issues and morally and societally detrimental behavior. While not unreasonable, this one-sidedly negative depiction of ‘the internet’ doesn’t take into account that digital realities also offer opportunities. By serving as a lifeline for maintaining relationships across vast distances and facilitating engagement in meaningful global communities, they are not only a crucial means of self-expression, activism, and exchanging ideas; for many they are also a place that offers resources for cultivating diverse forms of interpersonal relationships.

The study project requires a background in philosophy or at least the willingness to engage with philosophical questions. Apart from that, students from all fields in cognitive science are welcome, provided they have an interest in the personal, social etc. potential and pitfalls of our online lifes.
