Your desire to always win knows and recognizes no limits. Why you have no problem with the supreme court being so corrupt. And the court's conservative justices stood up for systemic racism in America. With their ruling they said "we need more of it".
Hey there Derpy! Did your 3 bimbo stooges (Sooty Maniac, Fat Cow and Voodoo Girl) get trampled again? 😄😄😄😄😄 Were they splooting when they got run over? Can't they take the heat anymore?
Sounds like exact quotes for drawn or inferred conclusions are hard to come by. But then, I'm not the one always asking for them. Just performing a tit-4-tat from one who often does.

Hans-Georg Moeller: "A technologist approach to media. Technology shapes humans in a new way...first the medium is the message. The medium is the message is actually the title of the first chapter of the book "understanding media". And here he (McLuhan) writes, "many people would be disposed to say that it was not the machine, but what one did with the machine that was its meaning or message. In terms of the ways in which the machine altered our relations to one another and to ourselves, it mattered not in the least whether it turned out corn flakes or cadillacs." So Mcluhan's view here represents a certain switch from what I'd like to call modernist agency, to post-modernist contingency. A typical modernist discourse would be asking the question "what do we do with it, which meanings or messages do we create." And this is also how, Mcluhan was a Professor of English literature, literature was interpreted as somehow an expression of human ideas and thereby as an expression of human subjectivity and human productivity. There was a strong emphasis on content, on intentionality, the ideas we Express in novels or poems. An emphasis on spiritual or intellectual agency. A focus on the message. Now McLaren switches this around. He switches the focus to the medium. Now he's interested in the technology, not the mode of production and in how content is created with and through technology, for him. ideas are now just cornflakes or Cadillacs, high and low, advertising or Shakespeare, they are contingent and secondary. What is primary, is not what we do with the media, but what do the media to us or what does the medium or what does the technology to us. The medium is now the agent, and humans are subjected to it. It conditions humans. This goes against the modernist Narrative of the sovereign individual. Media are no longer primarily means of human creativity and agency but they condition humans. This brings us to the proclamation "we shape our tools and thereafter they shape us". This is actually a fake mcluhan quote. The quote is from a text written by one of Mcluhan's acquaintances, Father John Culkin in a text titled "a schoolman's guide to Mcluhan". This pronouncement expresses an emphasis shift from agency to a sort of human existential transformation. Mcluhan says the machine altered our relations to one another and to ourselves. Now the pronouncement "we shape our tools and thereafter they shape us" not only addresses this shift away from agency, but also if you look more closely at it, it also points out that machines are media, become tools for self-shaping, we shape them so that they can shape us, we shape them in order to use them to reshape ourselves. So in my language what this sentence expresses is that technological change brings about a change in identity technology, a change in the mode by which we produce ourselves."

You must be so happy. You probably don't even care how corrupt the Supreme Court is now :(
ReplyDeleteYour desire to always win knows and recognizes no limits... not even Constitutional ones. Systemic racism in America is FINALLY dead.

Well, visually, it make look like one, but in the essence -- it is not.
And that's the whole point. ;-P

Well... I have read Lem... what bigger news you want to tell me? ;-)
What do you think about Technological Singularity?
Ough. Don't worry, I do not propose to start discussing it. ;-)
Just mentioned it to point to one pecular thing -- from a mouthes of prophets of it, it sounds like it can and should happen by itself...
but...
was there something like that before???
Like, somebody declared "Age of Steam coming?"... and that happened.
No. That always was this or that precise person, which did this or that.
And then we started having that self-moving things and other gimmicks of covilization.
