Yuk HUI / [updated] The Wind Rises: In Memory of Bernard 風起了。懷緬斯蒂格勒。
Sadly, Bernard Stiegler left the world on 5 August 2020. In his last days, “Since 2016, Bernard talked often about dreams, and the necessity of dreaming. Industrial capitalism destroys dreams … through the manipulation of attention. The faculty of dreaming, for him, is the faculty that Kant ignored. Bernard was a dreamer who dreamed the impossible, a fighter who fought against stupidity … All technologies are primarily dreams, but dreams can also become nightmares.” Special thanks to Yuk Hui for letting his memoria for late philosophy Bernard Stiegler be re-posted here.
Yuk HUI / 百年危機（下）One Hundred Years of Crisis (part 2)
Co-immunity is never going to realize as long as the logic of nationalism fueled by xenophobia reigns. How do we act out? 1919年前後困擾歐洲的虛無主義，因著技術加速和全球化被徹底擴散，縮減了全球自身的行為能力，內部的矛盾邏輯變成無法化解。儘管人類仍然希望繼續相信人類的不朽，全球身體免疫系統的危機自2001年 9/11 世貿受襲事件始起，「引發了一種作為永久的例外狀態的免疫反應。」2019年的新冠狀病毒，把「邊界」引回正朝一體化的全球。單一技術主義和文化失效，共同免疫體不再可能。信息戰的內在性變得明顯了，民族國家必須捍衛其物理邊界。100年了，以「現代民族國家和信息戰塑造的虛擬身份」為基調，我們如何擺脫單一技術經濟文化的惡性競爭？共同免疫體真的難以實現？具體的團結如何發生？

許煜博士的「百年危機」勾畫了1919年一次大戰前後到2019年新冠狀病毒全球擴散這100間，如何逐步暴露了全球自體免疫系統的崩壞，單一技術文化頻臨瓦解，把國界重新領回至日益一體化的全球。上下兩部之上。Yuk Hui traces the world’s last 100 years of crisis, from the Nietzschean tragic nothing to the Coronavirus outbreak in 2019 which has triggered a series of immunological reactions, bringing back to the global front-stage the notion and reality of borders. Part 1 of his essay…
