This course introduces the birth of the information society, or internet age, though a historical 

framework and seeks to avoid historical amnesia in addressing contemporary topics in digital 

communications. Issues of selfhood, its evolution, and the role of technology in this progression 

are examined. The guiding motivations that inform how and why we build the digital world are 

also analyzed. Innovations such as the Internet of Things (IoT), augmented reality (AR), and 

blockchain are introduced.
