Inspired by the impact of science and technology on Westernsociety, many Eastern leaders requested their societies to learnand live in by logic of science and technology. In this instrumen-talist point of view, we control technology, or technology, as tool,can be controled to serve human interests. The article, however,wishes to suggest that our existence can be technologically tex-tured (with respect to the rhythms and spaces of our daily life), orthat technology controls us. This article, following the phenom-enological reflections of Martin Heidegger, proposes a thesis thatthe relationship between technology and humans are ambiguous.On the one hand, technology can become a stock which is readyto use for our interests, but on the other hand, it can enframehuman beings according to its created systems. In such a situa-tion, the thinking or questioning, of this essence of technology,can be seen as a way towards human freedom and salvation. |
