The book delves into the concept of 'material-discursive entanglement,' illustrating how language shapes our reality while being influenced by the material world. It employs the metaphor of refraction to demonstrate the interplay between physical objects and technologies, revealing how they can distort and convey various discourses. Through this lens, it articulates the concerns and voices that emerge from this dynamic relationship, offering a nuanced understanding of communication and materiality.
