Federico Campagna on technology.
Following Heidegger’s hypothesis, if we understand reality as the frame within which the existent presents itself to our experience, we can observe how Technic consists primarily in a specific reality-system, and thus, in a specific way things emerge in the world. According to Heidegger, Technic’s method of ‘unveiling’ consists fundamentally in presenting every thing as entirely reducible to its instrumental value in view of its mobilization within the productive apparatus – where such apparatus itself is in turn just another standing-reserve ready to be employed in the service of its own expansion, and so on ad infinitum, along the endless spiral that constitutes Technic’s cosmological structure.
