I'm sure I've forgotten dozens of books and papers that deserve to be here, but human memory is fleeting. If any of these links break (or if the PDF isn't up to snuff) please do not hesitate to let me know.
The Extended Mind / Andy Clark and David Chalmers
Aside from presenting a thesis that warped my understanding of the world more than any other, this paper features the world's best footnote: "Authors are listed in order of degree of belief in the central thesis."
The Question Concerning Technology / Martin Heidegger
Bonus: I've written an explainer for this essay! You can read it here.
The Utopia of Rules / David Graeber
When Mark Kingwell assigned this book I assumed it would be as dull as the subject (bureaucracy) implied. What a fool I was, how naïve! It's hard to get me to ease up on the topic now, and forms have since been fascinating.

Bodies Without Borders / London Brickley
The Paradox of Automation: QWERTY and the Neuter Keyboard /Jason Resnikoff
