The postdigital mashup of digital and analog allows computing the incomputable

Evidence

Digital world, powered by long lines of zeroes and ones which are permanently transformed through logical operations, offers no room for nonquantifiable concepts such as feelings, intuition, and magic. Postdigital world, defined as a mashup between the digital and the analog, transcends this grave narrowness; at least in theory, it allows us to compute the incomputable, to feel the logic, and to logicize feelings. — James D. Kirylo (ed.), Reinventing Pedagogy of the Oppressed, 1135
