About
Moritz Hauschild is a leading voice in the study of digital transformation, with a primary research focus on the societal and cultural implications of pervasive computing. His work examines how the rapid integration of computer technology into everyday life has fundamentally reshaped human experience, moving far beyond the predictions of earlier utopian thinkers. Hauschild’s most influential contribution, articulated in his seminal 2011 paper “Digital Processes” (17 citations), draws a powerful analogy between the modern computer and the household refrigerator—both now standard equipment, yet the computer’s impact on daily routines, communication, and identity has been exponentially more profound. This work, along with its German-language counterpart “Digitale Prozesse” (2010, 6 citations), has become a touchstone for scholars exploring the unanticipated consequences of digital ubiquity. By framing the computer as an invisible, essential infrastructure, Hauschild challenges researchers to critically assess how technology mediates our most intimate and public interactions. His achievements include establishing a foundational framework for understanding digital processes as both mundane and revolutionary, making his research essential reading for students and scholars of technology studies, media theory, and contemporary sociology.
