VACHNADZE, Giorgi
Christian Eschatology of Artificial Intelligence

Giorgi Vachnadze took two negatives, Artificial Intelligence and Christianity, and made a plus, through a process of smashing the two discourses together. The author describes their process as involving a double-lens of Foucault & Wittgenstein, though in their elaborations on the Machine and the Flesh, he creates some curious fusions between Wittgenstein and an unlikely collaborator: Deleuze. This collage of scripture and technological discourse produces unexpected outcomes, and is highly valuable in how it recodes signs, and how it produces alternative possibilities in the discourse of Machines, Thinking and Calculation.

“It’s a hysterical book, in the sense that is your own psychoanalysis made out of theory. Lacan is going to say that you should hystericize in analysis, analysis must exist in hysteria”
