STS 3243W Humans, Machines, and Aesthetics

3 Credits
This seminar proffers a glimpse into the historically contingent relationships between machines and humans from the Enlightenment to the Industrial Revolution. We shall underscore the ways in which those interactions helped define aesthetics, particularly in music. In a very real sense this course traces the history of creativity over the past three centuries.
