Teleindividuation

Abstract

The goal of this article is to introduce the theory of teleindividuation. It is stated that individuation in the way formulated by Gilbert Simondon and it’s interpretation and extension made by Bernard Stiegler should be verified and thought through again, because it doesn’t fit to contemporary mode of technicization of culture. Teleindividuation conforms to the way in which technical objects as virtual objects emerge – the manner in which they are becoming what they are. Teleindividuation is only possible when a allostable mode of organization of technical culture is reached. It is also said that this shift from individuation to teleindividuation is considered as technical tendency (it is not universal). In the conclusion there are underlined consequences for culture.
