In infinite flights of imagination we have passed from footfall to bullet train. Through our capacities to perceive order, to systematically apply our attention, we have endlessly changed our world.
Like the wave at the bow of a ship from fire to flint to steam to electronics to fusion building all the while on the genius of our forebears. Yet with each new step quickly forgetting the brilliance and struggle of what came before.
"Technology, like art, is a soaring exercise of the human imagination. Art is the aesthetic ordering of experience to express meanings in symbolic terms, and the reordering of nature - the qualities of space and time - in new perceptual and material form. Art is an end in itself; its values are intrinsic.
Technology is the instrumental ordering of human experience within a logic of efficient means, and the direction of nature to use its powers for material gain.
But art and technology are not separate realms walled off from each other. Art employs techne, but for its own ends. Techne, too, is a form of art that bridges culture and social structure, and in the process reshapes both." - Daniel Bell
