Hello Friends!
Here I am going to write about the thinking activity on Slow Movement: A Cultural Shift towards Slowing Down Life's Speed that works given by dilip barad sir as reference to cultural studies. So we have studied one cultural study so in that paper we see points in this blog as a part of the study. So let's see about the technoculture in the society and also day to day life and also see the speed and slow movement how it works in the cultural studies and also in the society .
Jean Baudrillard was a French socialist and who coined the term ' Hyperrealism' . He defined
"A real without origin or reality"
Paul Virilio - (Dromology) , he is one of the most important theorists of speed and technology. He had discussed the significance of speed and technology in the postmodern era. He also mentioned that the speed of transmission shared not only the individual perspective but also the social, cultural aspects. That speed through we can say that the real became more fake.
Ulrich Beak - ( Risk society )
who has written extensively about risk and globalization. He argues that the risk is not only about technology , and all the things , is n which we can include all the traditions that were abolished, the traditional custom changed, erosion of traditional family patterns and democratization of personal relations.
In a modern society, there is technological change. Industrial society has created many new dangers of risks unknown in previous ages. The risks associated with global warming are one example. In the present era of industrialization. In nature obviously the risk is there. But we can say that new modernity creates dangerous risks for society. There is a chain of problems and solutions. How hurriedly the atomic power and weapons industry increases, in a way that is the risk. So for that risk another country tried to make more powerful weapons. In that way the chain of problems and solutions is going on. We are in a trap of social evils.
Organizations are not only part of the solution but also very much part of the problem: “We have more to fear from organizations and experts overextending their reach, propelled by forces endemic
to modern society, than from conniving conspiracies,” argues Clarke.
*Slow Movement *
Slow movement is related to balance.
Slowness is also about balance, so if you must hurry, then hurry slowly. “Festina Lente!”
In this technological world we want everything very fast.so we are always in a hurry to get something and to do something. But we should be speedy as well as slow to make decisions.
Baudrillard talk about the real and truth. We also here remember the great thinker Plato. He also made his view on reality and truth. Baudrillard said about the depth of something in a speed we can not get one's depth it will not be real.
Virilio argues that higher speed belongs to the wealthy and upper class society and slower is belongs to lower class and who are poor. He said that this world is governed by speed. He further said that Instantaneous communication actually reduces the time for detailed discussion, deliberation and consensus -building. So, we can say that we should be speedy with slowness. So your work process can take place in the right way.
Thanks😊
