Applied Technethics, De-Design & Human Ecology:

The suggested foundation course:

Applied Technethics, De-Design and Human Ecological Recovery

with Media Ethicist / Historian Ecologist George Kasey.

Aldous Huxley in his book Ends and Means states "...Everyone wants peace but few are willing to do what is necessary to achieve it...":



What do you think of the ad you have just read above? Yes! Everyone will agree. We all want these things. Community, Sustainability, Ethics in Technology and "Peace".

Actually, It is a cc. from a page that presents a homogenized and cloned version of Technethics. Where the popular form of commercial greenwashing is practiced, in order to sell toxic products like E-cigarettes.

This VFU* foundation course in Applied Technethics (t.m.) will teach you the techniques of self defense from indoctrination and technological manipulation. I.e.: Here you will acquire tools for media discernment - "how to seperate the glitter, from the gold" - and other important skills, like how to deal with "information overload". That, regardless of your academic or social standing, you may find useful, a hundred times a day, for the rest of your life

Applied Technethics will provide you with the essential tools for intellectual survival in the 21st CE.

Also, with an understanding of the practical use of applied technethics and de-design you will see what in fact is required, if we are to return to a sustainable planet and what the real and critical issues are in terms of human ecology.

The foundation course is suggested for all students as a basic preparation for the methods used in a Socratic system of education. De-Schooling, is about unlearning.

De-Schooling, like acquiring an understanding of the oral traditions, is a very difficult process, perhaps especially for those who may have matriculated to advanced degrees in accredited universities; those who may believe that they are somehow immune from the effects of the matrix of the technology of media domination. . Those who think The Matrix is a metaphor.

All that is required for success is an open mind, a dedication and perseverance. Anyone who applies herself will master the basics in a very short period of time.

I.e.: I used to think that I knew how to read until one day, I came across a book entitled, How to Read a Book by Mortimer Adler "...Which gives guidelines for critically reading good and great books of any tradition, but refrains from recommending any book outside the Western tradition..." It gave me the basics for critically reading and opened the way for me to discovered also the wealth of experience that exists "...outside the Western tradition..." If you are prepared to free your mind of fixed ideas, then you are ready for De-schooling.
