Technological Mediation without Empirical Borders
Original language description
This chapter argues that postphenomenology suffers from three main shortcomings: (1) it fails to engage with the question what constitutes a technology, (2) it mistakenly reduces technological mediations to observable interactions between humans and technologies, and (3) its commitment to the empirical turn in the philosophy of technology provides limited access to postphenomenology’s self-proclaimed object of study: human-technology relations. In providing these critiques, the chapter offers a substantial general critique of the empirical turn in the philosophy of technology, as well as points towards the need to find a language to articulate how the notion of “technological mediation” is not bounded to particular empirical circumstances.
