Guest Editor: Alexander S. Lenkevich
The second issue of volume 7 of Galactica Media is dedicated to the study of interfaces as mediators of embodiment, affect, and subjectivity in the digital age. The thematic focus of this issue is on experimental forms of interface interaction, where the digital body ceases to be a transparent mediator and becomes a site of resistance, deconstruction, and critical rethinking.
The issue opens with an introductory article by editor Alexander Lenkevich, in which the interface is presented as a key infrastructure of contemporary experience — not only a technical mediator but also an ontological operator that structures perception, control, and identity. Special attention is paid to radical artistic, gaming, and philosophical practices that seek to go beyond the normative embodiment embedded in digital platforms.
The issue is structured into three thematic sections:
This issue is intended for media scholars, philosophers, cultural theorists, and anyone interested in digital embodiment, posthumanism, critique of platform rationality, and new forms of sensibility in the age of interfaces.
