The title of the book is predicated on the basis of a tri-partite framework – the algorithm, the allegory & the rhythm of their mutual interaction. Oscillating between the algorithmic & the representational, the human agent navigates its environmental niche in a way which is conducive to its further psychological, social, & biological existence. Yet how transparent & how predetermined is such a dynamic? Where are the points of contact, friction & overlap within the variegated pulls & counteractive flows inherent in the choreography of the “democracy of objects,” & how conducive is such an ecology of relations to the continuing survival of the human, here understood as an intersectional juncture between the biological, technological, cultural, semiotic etc?
