локальный скандал: нашёлся некий американский традиционалист с PhD по философии, публично высказавшийся очень своеобразным образом (а поскольку он традиционалист, это доползло до эзотериологов). Настолько своеобразно, что народ
полез читать его диссер с вопросом "как он вообще защитился". И нашёл и принёс абстракт. Теперь я не могу развидеть этого. Пусть тут лежит теперь в качестве напоминания, поскольку мне интересно проследить, лишат ли его степени. Не за политические взгляды, ни в коем случае. Просто за качество работы.
Абстракт о диаболических силах, призрачной сути природы и том, что наука — всегда технонаука"Technological science has shattered the worldviews of all traditional cultures subjected to it, at times provoking reactionary religious responses that only underscore the traumatic force of this worldwide development. Yet, as I argue, this world-colonizing force is not neutral. The anticipatory projection and world-building characteristic of scientific theorization are grounded in a practical comportment, so that the essence of technology or Craft is ontologically prior to theoretical science. In other words, science is always already Technoscience. Moreover the theoretical concepts and methodologies involved in predictive calculation and in crafting frameworks that model and mold the world are derived from pre-conceptual ideas of an aesthetic character, namely Prometheus and Atlas—titanic gods with a Greek genealogy and a cosmopolitan promise.
Diabolically, this reveals itself through attention to what it is about Nature that eludes the grasp of theorization. The ideas or idealities foundational to Technoscience are not abstract, as the concepts derived from them are. Rather, they are spectral personae. The mathematical and geometric structure of scientific projections cannot model those phenomena that most strikingly manifest the spectrality of Nature. These so-called 'paranormal' phenomena are perfectly normal in animals and even simpler organisms still guided by instinct. It is our hypertrophied technical intellect that has atrophied them, but they can be regained through a cultivation of intuition. Indeed, only aesthetic intuition can consciously recognize the specters of Technoscience and transform our hitherto unconscious relationship with them to one wherein we are superhumanly empowered by embodying them rather than experiencing them as alienating instrumental forces."
