Synopsis

We map, measure, calculate, program and write – on artificial surfaces. We owe them our primary cultural techniques: image, writing, numeral. They allow us to see the world from the outside, a tremendous tool that seems to allow us to master it through and through. But do we no longer and more experience that we are the ones ruled by our calculations and algorithms? Raimar Zons' essay describes different flattening events: the depth, the reason, the culture and the arts, the global world. It does not focus on the obvious achievements of the artificial surfaces, but on our changed world relation, our Indian world being. Because the flattening of the world is also a loss story in which our liveliness is at stake.
