Technology

The document discusses how technology reveals aspects of human nature and the world according to Heidegger. It also notes that technology has revealed that people lack real personal connections and ownership over their own time. Finally, it argues that technology should be questioned because it has both benefits and potential future downsides and chaos, and that art can help lead people away from only seeing technology's benefits towards a more thoughtful perspective.

1. How is technology a mode of revealing?

Development in science and technology is the face of progress in human civilization.


According to Heidegger, technology is a mode of revealing because it shows so much
more about the human person and the world. By doing this, truth will be brought forth.

2. In our daily experience of technology, what else is revealed to you aside from its
function?

We do not own our time anymore. It seems like technology has taken it away from
us. Instead of talking to friends personally, we choose to talk digitally because of its
convenience. We now lack real touches is someone else’s life. Technology has its
downside after all.

3. Why should technology be questioned?

I think technology should be questioned because of its two faces. People only see
the good in it. But little do we know, future with technology is chaos. Our information
would leek freely. Even from what I watched, time will come that the minds of human
will be implanted with chips. We can be a robot to greedy people. Who would know
what will happen in the future?

4. How does art provide a way out of enframing?

According to Heidegger, with art, we are better able to see the poetic in nature in
reality. It leads us away from calculative thinking towards meditative thinking.
Through meditative thinking, we will recognize that nature is par excellence.
