Ye gana hai na bajana hai!!

“A malicious computer virus is that classic dweller of the liminal space between function and dysfunction: its entire function is geared towards draining out all use-value from a computer, to render it dysfunctional (in various degrees). Also for someone who has been consistently engaging with objects and their (dys)functionality, this intense concentration on the interface is perhaps expected. Today, if we look around our homes, we see an increasing array of objects getting ‘contaminated’ with the digital.
Consequently, the formal attributes of an object are no longer tethered to its putative function. When it’s the same digital chip that controls the clock as well as the microwave, what defines the object formally are not cog-wheels or heating coils but its interface – the functional surface it offers its users for manipulation and control. We could possibly parody McLuhan and say, ’the interface is the object’.”
