Meaning and imaginary

 


No meaning is given to us as a gift, any more than there is any guarantor or guarantee of meaning; it signifies that there is no other meaning than the one we create in and through history.And this amounts to saying that democracy, like philosophy, necessarily sets aside the sacred. In still other terms, democracy requires that human beings accept in their actual behavior what until now they almost never have truly wanted to accept (and what, in our utmost depths, we practically never accept), namely, that we are mortal.It is only starting from this unsurpassable--and almost impossible--conviction of the mortality of each one of us and of all that we do, that people can live as autonomous beings, see in others autonomous beings, and render possible an autonomous society.

Internal feeling and external world


As J.G.Ballard puts it, in the past we have always assumed that the external world around us has represented 'reality', however confusing or uncertain.

The inner world of our minds, its dreams, hopes, ambitions represented only the realm of fantasy and the imagination.With technologies of writing, these roles have been utterly reversed.We are being absorbed by our media.
 
Everything is digital and there is now scant evidence to distinguish an internal feeling from an external network event.Physics is what information looks like from the outside, conciousness is what information feels like from the inside.
