About this book

6 interviews with Bernard Stiegler reveal his motivations behind his philosophy of technics

This new translation of four revised radio interviews, conducted in December 2002 at France Culture with Élie During, is the best introduction to Stiegler’s Time and Technics series. This collection includes a new interview conducted specially for this volume and an interview with Artpress from 2001.

In Philosophising By Accident, Stiegler introduces some of the key arguments about the technical constitution of the human and its relation to politics, aesthetics and economics. He reads philosophical texts from the perspective of his controversial thesis about the three types of memory and speaks about concepts central to his later works, such as synchrony/diachrony, grammatisation and the industrial temporal object.
