In this episode Iris and Dr. Jen nerd out about Volume 2 & 3 of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, revisit the notion of sociotechnical imaginaries, and dig more deeply into the concept of social order and its relevance to the sociotechnical imaginary. We wrap with a discussion of scientific projects. What are those, really? How are they different from technologies? We respond with a discussion of the co-shaping relationship between sociotechnical imaginaries and the construction of Western science.
