The Importance of Technology to the Transcendental Future

By John O'Loughlin

This project was first conceived in the winter of 1981-2 and is the literary, or philosophical, sequel, in a sense, to 'The Way of Evolution', a volume of essays and aphorisms dating from 1981. Like that, this project also embraces technology in relation to transcendentalism, which is at the crux of its central argument, namely the importance of technology from a transcendental standpoint, and it could pose a new challenge both to how we regard technology and the purposes to which we would ideally like to see it harnessed in the decades and centuries to come. The cover, featuring what we believe to be a space station and/or satellite, would appear to illustrate the author's bias where the connection between technology and transcendentalism is concerned.
