    Summary: Wat betekent de alomtegenwoordige rol van techniek in onze cultuur voor mensen? Er zijn drie benaderingen van deze vraag te onderscheiden: uitwendigheid, mediatie en transhumanisme. Deze verschillen in de mate van verwevenheid die ze tussen mensen en techniek waarnemen. De mediatiebenadering blijkt het best in staat de nieuwe menselijke conditie te verhelderen: mensen geven niet meer autonoom vorm aan hun bestaan, maar alleen in verwevenheid met technologie.

    Cyborg intentionality: Rethinking the phenomenology of human–technology relations (review)
    Phenomenology and the Cognitive Sciences 7 (3): 387-395. 2008.
    This article investigates the types of intentionality involved in human–technology relations. It aims to augment Don Ihde’s analysis of the relations between human beings and technological artifacts, by analyzing a number of concrete examples at the limits of Ihde’s analysis. The article distinguishes and analyzes three types of “cyborg intentionality,” which all involve specific blends of the human and the technological. Technologically mediated intentionality occurs when human intentionality t…Read more

    The currently developing fields of Ambient Intelligence and Persuasive Technology bring about a convergence of information technology and cognitive science. Smart environments that are able to respond intelligently to what we do and that even aim to influence our behaviour challenge the basic frameworks we commonly use for understanding the relations and role divisions between human beings and technological artifacts. After discussing the promises and threats of these technologies, this article …Read more

    The theory of technological mediation aims to take technological artifacts seriously, recognizing the constitutive role they play in how we experience the world, act in it, and how we are constituted as (moral) subjects. Its quest for a compatible ethics has led it to Foucault’s “care of the self,” i.e., a transformation of the self by oneself through self-discipline. In this regard, technologies have been interpreted as power structures to which one can relate through Foucaultian “technologies …Read more

    After several technological revolutions in which technologies became ever more present in our daily lives, the digital technologies that are currently being developed are actually fading away from sight. Information and Communication Technologies are not only embedded in devices that we explicitly “use” but increasingly become an intrinsic part of the material environment in which we live. How to conceptualize the role of these new technological environments in human existence? And how to antici…Read more

    The Perspective of the Instruments: Mediating Collectivity
    with Bas de Boer and Hedwig Te Molder
    Foundations of Science 23 (4): 739-755. 2018.
    Numerous studies in the fields of Science and Technology Studies and philosophy of technology have repeatedly stressed that scientific practices are collective practices that crucially depend on the presence of scientific technologies. Postphenomenology is one of the movements that aims to draw philosophical conclusions from these observations through an analysis of human–technology interactions in scientific practice. Two other attempts that try to integrate these insights into philosophy of sc…Read more

    Transcendence in Technology
    Techné: Research in Philosophy and Technology 19 (3): 291-313. 2015.
    According to Max Weber, the “fate of our times” is characterized by a “disenchantment of the world.” The scientific ambition of rationalization and intellectualization, as well as the attempt to master nature through technology, will greatly limit experiences of and openness for the transcendent, i.e. that which is beyond our control. Insofar as transcendence is a central aspect of virtually every religion and all religious experiences, the development of science and technology will, according t…Read more

    Trusting Our Selves to Technology
    Knowledge, Technology & Policy 23 (3): 409-427. 2010.
    Trust is a central dimension in the relation between human beings and technologies. In many discourses about technology, the relation between human beings and technologies is conceptualized as an external relation: a relation between pre-given entities that can have an impact on each other but that do not mutually constitute each other. From this perspective, relations of trust can vary between _reliance_, as is present for instance in technological extensionism, and _suspicion_, as in various p…Read more
