Jean Chesneaux, The Time of Modernity
Modernity changes our relationship to time in every way. It modifies our contact with the historical past, rendering it simultaneously a fetishized gadget and a nauseating slogan. It breaks down duration and compresses it into ephemeral moments. This kind of time feeds the false computer memory ; and it cannot be understood by the non-western cultures which must experience this duration. These are the upsetting rhythms and cadences which produce human stress today. The over time will necessarily become a political issue. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
