Kehlan Morgan is @Formscapes , a philosopher whose work is focused on esoteric science. He brings to the table a great depth of insights about how Goethian and Stienerian metaphysics have silently shaped our approach to understanding nature, and how our abandonment of those metaphysics has produced a kind of science that is both perplexed and incapable. As modern science studies the world, it locks up at the stage of the Experimentum Crucis. Instead of mapping the dizzying variety of experiences, it lasers in on a single proof. Instead of creating a map of the universe that encompasses it's inherently perspectival nature, we attempt to hone it to a fine point. We discuss how this came to be the default approach, how it affects the stories we tell about ourselves and the rest of nature, and how transhumanism - the blending of man and machine - is the inherent, disastrous outcome of this approach.
