a recurring theme

Science and society.

Technology and culture.

I can't stop thinking about these things. Every day in every way I am reminded of the primacy of this line of investigation.

The relationships of human-created material technologies to socio-cultural technologies are vastly complex, weaving immensely tangled webs throughout the history of my human family.

Material and socio-cultural technologies exist together as symbiotic creatures, each taking what it can from the other and in doing so influencing the development of one another.
