Psychology 48: Technology and the Self
INTRODUCTION
The following is my term project for my Psych 48 class with Professor Gergen at Swarthmore College during the fall of 2001. This introduction, being written before the assembling of the project is meant to serve as an unbiased point of comparison of what was set out to do and what will eventually become of the project. The project being presented in a technological media means that the total project is both the content and the presentation.
Essentially this project will investigate several aspects of Mountain Biking and Technology. Below are links to several different topics that I have prepared. Some are quite in depth, while others are more of a commentary.
Sociotechnical Change: Mountain Bike Technology compared to the High Wheel Bike
Mountain Biking and Technopoly
The Internet and Mountain Biking
If you don't like surprises and want to read the concluding comments before delving into this amorphous blob of information, then go ahead...but you're cheating.
