]]> Comment on Derrida’s Pen: Philosophy and Technology by German Dziebel http://www.anthropreneur.com/?p=23&cpage=1#comment-88 German Dziebel Sun, 13 Jan 2008 17:13:21 +0000 http://www.anthropreneur.com/?p=23#comment-88 Cool interpretation, Dan. Right on the mark. A little thing like that can inspire a storm of thoughts from an ex-academic like me, all the way to the role of anthropology among other disciplines centered around its ability to observe reality through participation. In philosophy the anthropological turn started with Heidegger who gleaned from Husserl the idea of a "return to things" and of "objective reality"/ontology as a memory of human actions as they unfold in history. Derrida read Heidegger and concluded that "there's no reality outiside of the realm of play[writing]," meaning that all thoughts are self-descriptions. Cool interpretation, Dan. Right on the mark.

An output device subverted into an input device? Yeah, Derrida would approve. A pen - an instrument of thought projection - that watches you instead? An output device subverted into an input device?
