Summary/Abstract: Agnieszka Jelewska's book, Sensorium: Essays on Art and Technology (Naukowe UAM Publishers, Poznań 2012), is a collection of around thirty sketches linked by a network of discourses. The author investigates various methodologies and research theories (Philip Auslander, Henry Jenkins, Steve Dixon) and the relationships between science, art, philosophy, and technology. The reviewer stresses that Jelewska's aim is not to locate a "common denominator and synthesis" for the quoted and summarized theories, but quite the contrary: "in accordance with the notion of the Internet, to build a polyphonic, heterogeneous discourse.”
