One view of technics

Countless problems are being engendered by the expansion of technical equipment: gluts, ever-increasing risks consequent upon the increase in traffic and improvement in performance speeds; the installation of a generalized “state of emergency” caused not by machines that circulate bodies but by data-transport networks; the growing paucity of “messages,” illiteracy, isolation, the distancing of people from one another, the extenuation of identity, the destruction of territorial boundaries; unemployment—robots seeming designed no longer to free humanity from work but to consign it either to poverty or stress; threats surrounding choices and anticipations, owing to the delegation of decision-making procedures to machines that are on the one hand necessary since humanity is not fast enough to control the processes of informational change (as is the case for the electronic stock-market network), but on the other hand also frightening since this decision making is combined with machines for destruction (for example in the case of polemological networks for the guidance of “conventional” or non-“conventional” missiles, amounting to an imminent possibility of mass destruction); and, just as preoccupying, the delegation of knowledge, which not only modifies radically the modes of transmission of this knowledge but seems to threaten these forms from nothing less than sheer disappearance.

So this is a new blog I'm setting up.

It's going to be about theory, "the political," revolutionary art...that sort of thing.
