VII. POST SCRIPTUM:
Re-Coding


Modern society is enchanted by new technologies and sees them as a panacea to all troubles. The reason for this enchantment is concealed by the very nature of modern technologies: they alter our sensual proportions gradually, without resistance. An earnest artist is capable of meeting technology face-to-face without harm, namely because an artist is an expert who is aware of the rapid changes taking place in our sense perception.
