Ich finde es interessant, dass in solchen Kulturen – ich denke hier an lateinamerikanischen Kulturen – Demos immer eine tänzerische Komponente haben. Hier ein (berühmtes) Beispiel:

I struggled a little, but I found that there is at least one piece, in an Austrialian journal, that discusses this issue:

I wonder why Haraway or Braidotti haven’t brought this up—have they? Maybe I’m missing something. Because, wouldn’t it be important to imagine more, so to speak, colorful and less monochromatic posthuman futures?

Claro. Y es que Portus es un artista autodidacta de San Bernardo – está más cerca de Galería Metropolitana que de academias o clasismos. Esa es la parte que Laferte en su descargo y tú en tu acusación no están considerando – o queriendo considerar. De Jarpa, no sé, aún no leo lo suyo

Leí la columna de Leonardo Portus en Artishock al respecto hace un par de semanas. Y aunque en general no estoy de acuerdo con lo que plantea ahí, no creo en ningún caso que ella (la columna) o él (el artista) puedan asociarse a esas categorías acusatorias que lanzas

– many of them were taught it in school – that such a use obscures a part of the world’s history – one that may not be so relevant to these people. Same attitude imo

In times like these, when information and technology are commonly seen as a threat to difference and multiplicity, as a path to homogenization that threatens the very essence of what it means to be human, thinkers like Simondon …

… and that we must therefore focus on the present to reject these ideas – without offering any substantive, not to say radical, idea about it.
I would argue that we urgently need radical, tech emancipatory futures!

Instead, I think the sad true is that it’s the left – with very few exceptions – that has abandoned the future, seemingly convinced that it can only look like the sketches these tech moguls offer us … 3/4

Since when is Musk bluffing about conquering Mars? – his reusable rockets are very convincing for this narrative. Since when does Boston Dynamics show us these acrobatic humanoid machines? Not to mention generative AI and its promise of a soon-to-come general AI … 2/4

Similarly, I claimed that #cybernetics would be the more concrete or evident manifestation of a broader and more pervasive form of rationalization (*cybernetic thinking*) that can be traced back to the 19th century and is still active today, in the 21st century. But of course I fell short… / 3

I myself have argued elsewhere that *cybernetic thinking* can be thought of much as #Simondon conceived of what he called *Encyclopedism*: a long period of rationalization spanning three centuries, of which Diderot and D’Alembert’s *Encyclopédie* would only be its more concrete manifestation / 2

“[…] through the sensible exteriorized in the form of an artwork (or, in the case of writing a book, a computer program).” Re. & Co., 208. Let’s notice here that it’s this exteriorization, which can be a technological system (a work of *art*), that which can activate a collective becoming #machines

Therefore, I would argue that if there is a way to counter the #machinic #ideology of which Munn and Magee’s experiments would have been victims, it would be to feed (fine-tune) these #LLMs with all the cybernetic thinking (socialist and otherwise) that set Project Cyberyn in motion…

Here is the second point. Many revisits of Project #Cybersyn tend to take the role of #cybernetics for granted. But, on the contrary, it was at the very heart of the project, and any effort to grasp its potential requires tracing and problematizing the cybernetic thinking that informed it …

Allende was, of course, the articulator of #Chile’s socialism, but his connection to Project #Cybersyn was always distant, to say the least. His political ideas did influence the development of the project, but they were always mediated through Beer’s management #cybernetics …
