Dr. Striphas' current research focuses on the relationship of culture and technology. More specifically, his work explores the historical conditions by means of which algorithms and computational processes have come to play a critical role in cultural decision making; it also considers the contemporary effects of 'algorithmic culture' on human thought, conduct, and expression. Striphas is author of The Late Age of Print: Everyday Book Culture from Consumerism to Control (2009) and Algorithmic Culture Before the Internet (2023), both published by Columbia University Press. HIs work has been translated into German, Korean, Italian, and Turkish.
