1. we will discuss an however improvised overview over current methods to approach an analysis
of the contemporary world form:
theory of living systems (u. maturana, n. luhmann)
theory of media (m. macluhan, d.de kerckhoove,fr. kittler)
spherology - theory of the human space (th.macho, p.sloterdijk)
 
 - in my eyes and intellectual experience all of these are needed to understand the extremely improbable but nevertheless "'real'' ongoings that we are witnessing
 
2. just a year ago, peter sloterdijk's speach about "rules for the human parc" somehow happened to evoke the most media attention that a philosophical discourse got after the second world war in german speaking countries ( and then france, brasil, etc.), even beating adorno-popper in numbers of coverage (not in content however)
as I have been working with p. sloterdijk for the past four years i was
asked to dicuss the backgrounds - no problem, depending on the people
present we can decide what to talk about as we go on
