Philosophical speaking, The usual orientation that we have upon our relationship with technology could be the result of a religious kind of functioning of the brain/consciousness. In light of what Heidegger attempts to tell us of Ancient Greek understanding of our place in the universe, It may be that the link we see between our civilization and our technology is one of an intact faith, an intrinsic mythology.

If this be the case, then we have a rationale that diverges from popular conventions of communal knowledge and progress; we might find that we get outside of such faith through an ‘undecided rejection’, a refusal to participate, as Badiou suggests, in “party politics” that celebrates its limitations as ubiquitous and all- encompassing.

  1. Just out of curiosity, are you on Twitter? I find conversation difficult on WordPress difficult (I may be not using it in the most effective manner).

    • @transspace. But my posts just linked there, show up there. Perhaps oddly enough, I just do t get Twitter. It doesn’t make sense to me. 🤣

About this blog

Essays in mental health philosophy—less “tips,” more why things work (or don’t). I look at the first principles under therapy, psychiatry, psychology, and everyday life, and occasionally share notes from papers and books-in-progress.

This space stands alongside—not inside—my counseling practice. If you’re seeking therapy in Colorado, there’s a link in the footer.
