Flusser: linguagem, arte e techné

Abstract

ABSTRACT: This article focuses on the communicational problem of contemporary man, according to the philosophical perspective of Vilém Flusser. Therefore, it seeks to present art as an expression of human activity, which is intended to be liberating. If technique promotes the individual's alienation from the capitalist system and prevents them from thinking critically, the language of art frees them as a gateway to intersubjectivity. Therefore, neither subjectivism nor objectivism in science will be able to emancipate the subject. True liberation lies in the dialogicity of philosophy, as an imposition of the self. The bibliographical research that supports this work focuses, above all, on Prehistory, as an approach to the historical moment in which we live, characterized by the predominance of programmed devices, which transform man into a mere employee.

Keywords: Intersubjectivity; Technique; Flusser; Contemporary art; Device.
