This chapter continues uncovering the obscurations of what a Machine is by examining the Phenomenology of what it is or isn’t. What lies behind and beyond the phenomena of its skeuomorphic medially of a technological system?
The closer you get to the Machine, the stranger it looks back. Speaking of a system of interacting elements functioning great than their sum is simply a tautology that leaves the question unanswered.
From: The Philosophy of the Machine, translated by Hopkins Stanley and Martin Burckhardt. (to be published)
