The Revolt Against Technology - Jared Henderson
"In this video, I discuss the New Luddites we're seeing on college campuses. I try to place this movement in conversation with philosophers throughout history who have been critical of technology.
Topics include: the history of the Luddites, Plato on writing in the Phaedrus, Heidegger's 'The Question Concerning Technology', metrics and value capture, Attensity! by the Friends of Attention, and Paul Kingsnorth's Against the Machine." from the video introduction
