| Abstract | |
This thesis has begun with a mismatch. In front of the unfolding of Cybernetics and its models and metaphors, at the beginning we were in the vestibule of the human future where a voice stood up to deal with the risks of an imminent overrun of man by machines. We were herded into thinking the human's status in Western, and if metaphorization often appeared as its foundation, we have not found otherwise the figure of a future Absolute Machine, sovereign machine, Queen of metaphorical production, center for a new symbolic order, in short, receptacle of the transfer of a linguistic technology that would have marked the humans and distinguished them until here in the Great Chain of Beings. But why would the metaphors have to be transferred to machines on this kind of strange possibility of metaphors without body? Because of this strangeness, questions had to be reopened, and we stepped back before any step ahead, leaving the vestibule of the future of human beings. At this point, the meeting. Going through spaces, we felt different speeds, and the original peep opened in a total instability of the gaze. Less verbal language, less the articulable only, we moved with Foucault and all other meetings provoked by him among the vertigo of the relationship between visible and articulable. Then metaphor lost its space and we observed representation bowing down in face of the forces mainly through painting. More than trying to show a picture of the future of the human, a possible Total Machine, we tried to access the plan of the dispute of the forces through a virtual mirror with Foucault and Deleuze, waiting with them that a new form will not be worse than the previous ones, the classic God-form and the modern Man-form (AU) | |
