Description
Homo Textor aims to exemplify how weaving as a (technical) mode of existence provides concepts that help to rethink Homo faber and the way the Moderns talk about technology. Contradicting a hylomorphic schema where an actor gives form to matter, the characteristic weaving mode is histomorphism, a generative process where intelligible forms grow out of the loom-weaver-threads system. As the contributions in this book show, histomorphism is not a technical mode restricted to the craft of weaving, but a concept providing a complex type of order that humans/actors trace across social, formal, cosmological, digital, and philosophical dimensions.
