Cultural Writing. Edited by Jeff Cox and Joasia Krysa. ENGINEERING CULTURE is the second installment in Autonomedia's DATA Browser series. Social change does not simply result from resistance to the existing set of conditions but from adapting and transforming the technical apparatus itself. Walter Benjamin in his essay 'The Author as Producer', recommends that the 'cultural producer' intervene in the production process in the manner of an engineer. This collection of essays and examples of contemporary cultural practices asks if this general line of thinking retains relevance for cultural production at this point in time. ENGINEERING CULTURE contains writings by Josephine Berry Slater, William Bowles, etoy, Matthew Fuller, Pit Schultz and more.
