Quotes by Judy Wajcman  (?)

“Psychologists confirm that humans are incapable of giving their full attention to two tasks simultaneously.37 What people actually do is switch their attention from one task or platform to the next, and such task switching leads to a host of issues, including attention difficulties, poor decision making, and information overload.”
Judy Wajcman, Pressed for Time: The Acceleration of Life in Digital Capitalism

“Judith Butler, for example, has argued that men’s and women’s interests are not objectively given, but are collectively created.”
Judy Wajcman, TechnoFeminism

“I question this stereotype of the technologically tethered worker with no control over his time. Instead, the use of information and communication technology (ICT) for both work-related and personal matters is shown to have positive, as well as negative, implications for men and women workers. The contemporary office has by my account morphed into a ubiquitous technoscape, and this has reconfigured the very nature of working time.”
Judy Wajcman, Pressed for Time: The Acceleration of Life in Digital Capitalism
