Amid an unprecedented digital revolution, our society grapples with profound challenges, from the upheaval of traditional global systems to the ethical implications of technology's inexorable advance. As academic scholars seek a comprehensive understanding of this dynamic environment, Driving Decentralization and Disruption With Digital Technologies emerges as a beacon of insight. This compelling book confronts the intricate issues spawned by decentralization, de-globalization, and the transformative power of digital technologies, providing a roadmap for traversing the complexities of our digitally connected world. The book starts by unraveling the disruptive forces at play, shedding light on the threats posed to existing hierarchies and the potential consequences for disadvantaged groups. Digital disintermediation, driven by platforms and peer-to-peer networks, shakes the foundations of traditional economic systems, leaving banks and markets in flux. As global relationships redefine themselves in the face of decentralized markets, supply chains, and economic ties, scholars grapple with the profound implications for the future. Driving Decentralization and Disruption With Digital Technologies stands out by offering a deep dive into decentralized technologies, particularly blockchain and distributed ledger technologies. It showcases their capacity to empower individuals and local communities, examining the transformative potential of decentralized finance (DeFi) and governance models. The book examines the difficult issue of digital identity and data sovereignty, examining policy considerations, challenges, and the promise of decentralized identification systems. For academic scholars seeking clarity amidst the complexities of the digital era, Driving Decentralization and Disruption With Digital Technologies is the indispensable guide. It meticulously dissects the ethical and societal ramifications of the digital revolution, advocating for a fair and just digital society. By fostering an understanding of the intricate interplay between technology, decentralization, and de-globalization, this book equips scholars with the knowledge needed to navigate the uncharted territories of a digitally connected world. Driving Decentralization and Disruption With Digital Technologies is a roadmap for academics seeking to comprehend and contribute to the ongoing transformation of our global society

This book explores interactive systems for performing, composing, analysing, and learning about music, taking into account new interaction technologies such as the iPad, Wii, iPhone, Kinect, and Arduino, and newly relevant theories such as embodied cognition.

"Psychology as a science and a discipline must do more than merely acknowledge that we live in a digital environment with computers and automation. It must do more than add a footnote, chapter, or illustration to current texts while perpetuating theories developed in the pre-digital world. Instead, it must rethink its basic theories in every area - from sensory and perception to social and clinical. Fortunately, this is already occurring in many areas. Cognitive science and neuroscience were founded in the digital age, and human factors psychology has embraced the interaction with computers, but some areas have fallen behind. Rather than make too much of this now, instead we will develop and push these areas forward as we go through the successive chapters of this book. In doing so, we will try to cover the full range of psychology"--
