SHORT PAPER. This paper is an effort to examine the codes of interaction between the carbon-based and the silicon-based, i.e., the human and the machine, notably the shifting agencies addressed by adopting feminist technoscientific and new materialist lenses to grapple with the techno-industrial paradigm shift that has been (dis)figuring the anthropocentric condition. The first part of the paper lays down the qualities of this emerging ecology while recognizing the importance of human accountability and situatedness. The focal point of this survey is the anthropologist Lucy Suchman’s classic Human-Machine Reconfigurations which is elaborated upon through anchor points she posits revisiting Donna Haraway and Karan Barad’s arguments. The last part engages with the implications of such a coupling for human and machine sensoria in order to envisage the qualities of a distributive sensorium that this regenerative agency can put forth while alluding to practices of situated computing.
