Heidegger on Art and Technology / 海德格論技術與藝術思想

碩士 / 佛光人文社會學院 / 哲學研究所 / 93 / Abstract
Technology and art in Ancient Greek times shared the same word root, which meant the disclosure of beings. However, they gradually diverged in meaning in later ages. Technology combined with Western philosophy, and philosophy took the path of technology. From Plato to Nietzsche, from rationalism to irrationalism, modern technology has collected the whole body of accomplishments from philosophy; it is the final produce of philosophy. While art ultimately became aesthetics, the subject of the study of beauty by Mankind, losing its earliest sacred significance.
Martin Heidegger employed Phenomenology and Hermeneutics to get back to the root meaning of technology and art. He felt that the nature of modern technology is Gestell, which compels disclosure, forcing all beings, including human beings to be each crammed into one Gestell after another and be disclosed in a calculated way. Modern technology is the inevitable result of the development of Western philosophy. It is dangerous, in part because it plunges us all into a spiritual crisis that strips us of our humanity, and in part because it creates an environmental crisis. In order to solve these crises, Heidegger felt we needed to return to the artistic method of disclosure. He felt that the real nature of art is poetic creation. The nature of poetry is to create and construct reality. Poetic allows being to be revealed, and is the basis for Mankind to create a new fate.
