Can seeing and hearing be conceived of as medial practices? This volume departs from the assumption that sensory perception should always be conceived as effects of socio-technical assemblages. With the use of case studies, the contributors investigate exemplary configurations of »doing seeing« or »doing hearing«, in order to illustrate and analyze the dense entanglement of sensory perception and technological environments. They make the interplay of bodies and technical things in specific contexts of action observable, whereby not just technologies of the self take on significance, but also, forms of governmediality become apparent.
