ISBN10: 0262693267, ISBN13: 9780262693264, [publisher: MIT Press Ltd Okt 2005] Softcover Neuware - A guide to the next great wave of technology an era of objects so programmable that they can be regarded as material instantiations of an immaterial system.'Shaping Things is about created objects and the environment, which is to say, it's about everything,' writes Bruce Sterling in this addition to the Mediawork Pamphlet series.
