“For us, mind has nature for its premise, being nature's truth and for that reason its absolute prius. In this truth nature has vanished, and mind has resulted as the idea arrived at being-for-itself, the object of which, as well as the subject, is the concept. This identity is absolute negativity, for whereas in nature the concept has its perfect external objectivity, this its alienation has been superseded, and in this alienation the concept has become identical with itself. But it is this identity therefore, only in being a return out of nature.” MindWellsHas BeensIdeasReasonPerfectSubjectsIdentityObjectsReturnConceptsAbsolutesNegativityAlienationPremisesIdenticalObjectivityPrius Author:Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

“[Cameras] tend to turn people into things and the photograph extends and multiplies the human image to the proportions of mass-produced merchandise and, [in the age of photography] the world itself becomes a sort of museum of objects that have been encountered before in some other museum and to say that the camera cannot lie is merely to underline the multiple deceits that are now practiced in its name.” PeopleWorldHumansHas BeensAgeLyingTurnsNamesObjectsPhotographyMassCamerasPhotographProportionDeceitMuseumsMultipleMerchandise Author:Marshall McLuhan
“For example, the idea that objects have properties out there in fixed ways is an incorrect idea about the world. Properties are created through relationships and processes. They are not inherent in electrons or photons or quanta any more than they are inherent in soil or trees or people. So my critique of reductionistic science is a critique that I have inherited from my scientific training. But it has been deepened by my experiences as an ecologist, in seeing the ecological destruction taking place today.” PeopleWorldWayHas BeensIdeasTodayProcessSeeingTreeExampleObjectsTrainingDestructionPropertyFixedSoilQuantumInherentCritiqueEcologicalElectronsPhotons Author:Vandana Shiva

“One thing that you and I know is language. Another thing that you and I know is how objects behave in perceptual space. We have a whole mass of complex ways of understanding what is the nature of visual space. A proper part of psychology ought to be, and in recent years has been, an effort to try to discover the principles of how we organize visual space. I would say that the same is true of every domain of psychology, of human studies.” KnowsWayTryingYearsHumansHas BeensWholeLanguageUnderstandingSpaceEffortPrinciplesStudyPsychologyOne ThingObjectsOughtMassComplexesBehaveVisualsOrganizeDomain Author:Noam Chomsky
