Article: The Computer as a Prosthetic Organ of Philosophy
Author(s):
Abstract
This article looks at issues of language and encoding from the perspective of computer programming. Particular attention is paid to the different relationships between code and encoder/decoder in computer coding and human language coding. Examples of the writer/artist's work and working experience are used to illuminate these differences and a role for computers as philosophical prostheses is proposed.
