ABSTRACT

Today, the dominance of this tendency hypophysics is not to be scorned upon without understanding the conditions in which it arose. Hypophysics came to be dominant when metaphysics became impossible; that is, instead of referring to another domain for values the people began to find the Ideal within our preferred socio-economic milieus and in the calamitous misunderstandings of nature. Early Wittgenstein's experience of this mystery was that of the individual who in his solitude experienced the sense of the world lying outside it while the being of the world itself was for that very reason obscure. From the experience of the obscure the people should think of the other side of hypophysics, which is technological determinism. It is the same aversion from the obscure experience that turns the reader towards technological exuberance where a new god is being founded the hyper-machines that make machines which humans can neither build nor comprehend.
