Reflections: Is There a Technical Culture?
Is There a Technical Culture? Excerpts from “The Technological Bluff” by Jacques Ellul
Technique is here. It is everywhere. It is not represented merely by some useful objects. The whole field of computers is a challenge to our thinking. Are we able to think about the technical phenomenon? Are we able to think this “thought” of the computer? Can we continue to nurture culture on the ancient soil, a culture that can be popular (but the people have changed) or lofty (but does it not then lose its grip on reality and take refuge in dreams and ideas)? We have always conceived of what we call culture within and on the basis of our material, social, everyday, concrete world. Technique is here, it is our environment. Can we abstract ourselves from it? That is our problem.
