In the Cage(1898), Henry James depicts the life of a telegraphist connected through a network of information on mental and social levels. The unnamed woman embodies the medium of sending messages and enacts the new abilities as telegraphist through interaction with the machine. Recalling her “A Cyborg Manifesto,” (1985), how do you think Donna Haraway would interpret James’ In the Cage?

The Soviet film, Man with a Movie Camera (1929), directed by Dziga Vertov, is an experimental depiction of a dynamic city that served as a commentary on the Soviet ideal of future humanity: always on the move, a perpetual revolution. Three decades later, in his 1954 essay, “Questing Concerning Technology,” Martin Heidegger presented a critical conception of modern technology. Explain how Heidegger would critically interpret Vertov’s film based on his 1954 essay.

In the beginning of his “This is the Voice of Algeria,” Fanon Franz writes, “we propose in this chapter to study the new attitudes adopted by the Algerian people in the course of the fight for liberation, with respect to the precise technical instrument: the radio.” If Fanon had read Ruha Benjamin’s 2019 work on Race After Technology, how do you think he would interpret the role of new media technologies, particularly the role of algorithm in promoting racial hierarchies, in 21st century modern life?

How could Friedrich Kittler’s theory of film as “mechanized death” (see pp. 124-126) be read, if at all, complementary with Martin Heidegger’s “Questing Concerning Technology”? Please explain by referencing both texts.
