Description
We hope that reading these articles contributes to the urgent debate about the direction that as a society we want to give to our practices from the integration of digital technologies in all dimensions of life. So that, from a critical and playful perspective, we can participate with better tools in the appropriation of these technologies for emancipation and autonomy. From the Prologue.
