LESSON 1 HUMAN FL FLOURISHING OURISHING IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOL TECHNOLOGY OGY MO MOTIV TIV TIVA ATION ACTIVITY #1: Picture Analysis. Write your answer in your assessment notebook

What can you see in the picture? I see in the picture is a half robot, half human being.

Q: Can human be replaced by robots? Yes or No? And why? Yes, robots will replace humans for many jobs, just as innovative farming equipment replaced humans and horses during the industrial revolution. Factory floors deploy robots that are increasingly driven by machine learning algorithms such that they can adjust to people working alongside them.

LEARNING A ACTIVITIES CTIVITIES ACTIVITY # 2: Questions for Reflections Instruction: Explain each of the following questions in 5-10 sentences. You may refer to the rubrics provided on how your work will be graded.

1. How is technology a mode of revealing?

Development in science and technology is the face of progress in human civilization. According to Heidegger, technology is a mode of revealing because it shows so much more about the human person and the world. By doing this, truth will be brought forth

2. In your daily experience of Technology, what else is revealed to you aside from its function? We do not own our time anymore. It seems like technology has taken it away from us. Instead of talking to friends personally, we choose to talk digitally because of its convenience. We now lack real touches is someone else’s life. Technology has its downside after all.

3. Why should technology be questioned? I think technology should be questioned because of its two faces. People only see the good in it. But little do we know, future with technology is chaos. Our information would leek freely. Even from what I watched, time will come that the minds of human will be implanted with chips. We can be a robot to greedy people. Who would know what will happen in the future? 4. How is Questioning the piety of thought? For questioning is the piety of thought.” Heidegger's “The Question Concerning Technology” can thus aptly be described as a comprehensive attempt to interrogate the idea of technology in order to gain an understanding of the essence of the thing, rather than merely understanding it as an instrument or a means 5. How does art provide a way out of enframing? Art provides us with a way out of enframing by bringing us closer to poieses and further away from techne. Art activates human sensitivity if it even exists in an individual. The use of imagination and actually seeing things the way they are is part of poieses. Modern technology, on the other hand, challenges everything in its desire to prepare for the future, in other words, it destroys and disrupts the natural world. It is now part of our life causing it to be an enframing factor in it. To get away from it from time to time and indulge in the arts reacquaints us to our past reality that is increasingly being forgotten today

ACTIV CTIVITY ITY # 3 : T Tec ec ech h in a Pic Form five groups and pick a work of art that you feel best revels technology. Reflect and discuss among yourselves how the artwork describe and reveals technology. Ground your discussion from the concept learned in this chapter.

AWAKEN 1- Brixels Kinetic Art Installation by BREAKFAST The word “technology” might evoke images of laser beams, modern computers, and streams of data, but innovative engineering spans decades. Artists have always used technology as new ways to express themselves. Without the invention of the paint tube, perhaps the Impressionists would never have painted en plein air. And where would Andy Warhol have been without silkscreen printing? Over time, art and technology have become more and more intertwined, with many contemporary artists adopting new types of media to create their work. From laser-printed ceramics to codegenerated paintings, digital artists are using technology to push the boundaries of traditional practices. This past year, we’ve seen artists use machinery to generate exciting new artwork, such as New York based BREAKFAST, who invented its own, motorized medium called Brixels. This year has also shown us how advanced artificial intelligence is and what that means for fine artists and photographers. Ultimately, there’s no denying technology’s influence on the arts today. Awaken is a Mirrored Stainless Steel, painted aluminum, custom mechanical motor system, custom motion tracking software, camera, computer 10 x 4 x 1 ft Executed in 2019 Edition of 5 plus 3 artist's proofs On view at Empires Stores in Brooklyn, NY, through September 2019. Awaken is an interactive kinetic art sculpture made from BREAKFAST’s custom Brixels medium. As one moves their hand in front of the piece, each Brixel is brushed awake, then slowly settles back to its previous, somber state. The sculpture is an exploration of human interaction with a robotic medium, with the medium expressing a reaction to a person’s movements.

Awaken is made of 168 Brixels—a medium developed and created by BREAKFAST—which uses silent motors to quietly and smoothly rotate the Brixels to precise locations. BREAKFAST is a New York-based art collective that combines science, mechanical engineering, and aesthetic beauty to create interactive installations. The team invented their own kinetic medium called Brixels—motorized brick-shaped “pixels” that can rotate in either direction. In one of their 2019 pieces, titled Awaken 1, BREAKFAST created a mirrored wall made up of 168 Brixels that move according to a person's movements. The mesmerizing piece can be used as a canvas by “drawing” with your hand in the air, and explores human interaction with robotics. Watch Awaken 1 in action above.

ACTIV CTIVITY ITY #2: Questions ffor or R Reflection eflection 1. Why must we change our paradigm of growth and consumption to that of “de-development”? We must shift to a paradigm of growth because we don’t want our country or an organization be deteriorated with state of dis-improvement and anything would fall to a hopeless situation. The dedevelopment would cause one to be disabled with opportunities, growth, and success.

2. Why are the terms de-development, de-growth, and zero growth seemingly unacceptable to the usual framework of human progress? Because it means limit to growth or no growth/learning at all, it is a sort of insult to an individual whom you will describe as de-growth and zero de-growth. De-growth activists advocate for the downscaling of creation and utilization the compression of economies contending that overconsumption lies at the foundation long haul ecological issues and social disapirities. Key to the idea of de-growth is that diminishing utilization does not require individual martyring or a reduction in prosperity.

3. How have we been enframed by the nation of growth? We are enframed by the notion of growth in the world of science because of the advancement and development in the field of advancement. We were all amazed at the advances that we never thought would be possible, but because of science, it happened. For example, the economic growth of a country is now measured through its advancement in technology and how these would help its countrymen. This notion encompasses our belief that growth is connected with advancement

4. How do we improve our lives and yet reduce consumption? Discipline and control of self-desires Like save anything that is necessary like money, food, etc. This will improve our lives through less consumption.

5. What are the similarities and defences between Heidegger’s TheQuestion Concerning technology And Hickel’s article? Heidegger argues that the technology of the current world has become essential in the day to day life and that the technology is highly advanced as compared to the old days. On the other hand,Hickels argue that the technological innovation will be of no help in getting rid of natural disasters that occur in our world.

According to Hickel, what must be done instead of urging poor countries to “catch up” With rich ones? We should be thinking of ways to get rich countries to “catch down” to move appropriate levels of development. 10. How would the different areas of the world react to the idea of”de-development”?

Scientism is a belief that all things are and should be explained by science alone. No biblical basis, no superstitions, no opinions. 2. How is science comparable to magician?

Science is the systematic study of the structure and behaviour of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment while Magic is an unexplained phenomenon of apparently influencing the course of events by using mysterious or supernatural forces. 3. Why is science more dangerous than magic? Science could be dangerous if people will misuse it. Though science, a lot of inventions can be made. Some are harmful and some are useful.
