laodan discovered 16 months ago- Genetic Architecture in Future Feeder by cw wang
With the dissolution of the last utopian project of Man in the name of Communism, the great specter that once haunted Europe and the rest of the world has all but vanished, leaving in its wake an ideological vacuum that is now being filled by the tentacles of globalization with its ecumenical ambition. As humanity has become mesmerized by the triumphant spell of capitalism, what remains less apparent in the aftermath of this dissolution is that the world is moving incipiently toward a threshold that is far more radical and fantastic than any utopic vision since the dawn of the Enlightenment. Once again, the world is witnessing the rumblings of a Promethean fire that is destined to irrupt into the universe of humanity, calling into question the nature and function of life world relations as they so far have existed.

CC Wang is primary concerned with architecture and the conclusion of his post goes "...architecture is becoming increasingly dependent on genetic computation: the generative construction and the mutual coexistence of possible worlds within the computable domain of modal space." I have nothing against the organic principle... it's the principle of life. BUT It frightens me when man starts dreaming of taking over the organic principle in order to devise a possible materialization of his fantasies. This is just what's on the verge of happening. A few thinkers, dwelling into their abstractions, could eventually unleash "a Promethean fire that is destined to irrupt into the universe of humanity"... How to call this? Is this not by definition the summit of what is totalitarianism? Totalitarianism is the principle of complete and unrestricted power of government. Tampering with the organic principle does not require the control over the power of a government. It only requires brain power and cash invested into that brain power. In the end this combination of capital + brain power is far more potent than government. It has the potential to inflict its will to all governments and all people on earth... This is uber-totalitarianism.
