Debray on Technology
In an interview with WIRED, Régis Debray, a prominent thinker influenced by Marshall McLuhan, discusses the impact of technology on society. Debray's work, known as 'Mediology', scientifically explores the reasons why conceptual, ideological, and abstract ideas materialize as ideologies that have the power to change the world. According to Debray, the world does not move simply because there are objects in it, but rather because there are technologies that surround and interact with these objects. Technology plays a crucial role in shaping and driving societal changes.
