Abstract
If we want to understand the societal applications of the digital commons we should move from ontological to phenomenological perspective. Thus we will return the Subject in our thinking and start to discern what is it for people in the digital commons.
Both Andersen’s story “The Swineherd” and the communication theory will help understand a seemingly paradoxical situation represented by paratactic commons.

Международный симпозиум «Pro&Contra медиакультуры» уже в течение более 10 лет ставит своей задачей обнаружить связи между
искусством, наукой, политикой, экономикой и технологиями, представить инновационные проекты на стыке современного искусства и
социальных практик, экспериментальной науки, дигитального искусства и дизайна, перформанса и программирования, анимации и
медиаархитектуры. Я участвовала в разделе "Панель 3. Галерея и метро: как медиа-арт меняет повседневное восприятие?" с работой
"Новые медиа как технологии себя" (на данный момент это пока моя единственная публикация на русском, хотя и вторая конференция в России)

Abstract
The paper presents different examples of sentimental journeys starting from the legendary journey of Laurence Sterne to the Akademik Shokalskiy ship stuck in the Antarctic ice as an argument for introduction of the term ‘Technologies of Self’ as a useful tool to describe the ways people cope with unfamiliar circumstances. Just as Phatic communication describes non-informational exchange as a tool of contact establishment with others, the term‘Technologies of Self’ helps understand audience behaviour in the interactive environment as a tool of
self-mastery via reflection.

Abstract
Within the “aesthetics of existence” framework the Ancient Greeks developed an entire activity of speaking and writing in which the work of oneself on oneself and communication with others were linked together. Michel Foucault described these practices as “Technologies of Self”. Ubiquitous interactive media of our times intensify those practices in number and frequency, which brings back to agenda the urgency of conceptualisation of individual conduct and agency. We propose to use Foucault’s notion of “Technologies of Self” when we need to focus on the conduct rather than content of human activities, for example, when describing interactive arts’ audience behaviour. Our artist-run laboratory ‘Acoustic Images’ created a series of art projects which bring to light these practices ‘of self’ by making people conscious of the activities, which would normally go unnoticed.
