Magic made with technical systems: a working that uses a machine, a network or a program as its medium or its instrument.
What it is
Magic made with technical systems: a working that uses a machine, a network or a program as its medium or its instrument.
In practice
Use it for a practice where the artefact can be built, run, logged and changed. If nothing is built or done, it is commentary, not technomancy.
