Melanie Swan Knihy

Exploring cognitive enhancement through the lens of philosophers Bergson, Deleuze, and Simondon, this book shifts the focus from bioethical concerns to the potential for expanded subjectivation. It delves into concepts like duration, free will, and collective individuation, advocating for a collaborative framework that includes both human and non-human entities. The second part articulates the idea of greater subjectivation possibilities, connecting qualitative aspects of existence with Deleuze's notions of immanence and transcendental subjectivity, ultimately envisioning a post-subject model of subjectivation.

This book takes you beyond the currency (Blockchain 1.0) and smart contracts (Blockchain 2.0) to demonstrate how the blockchain is in position to become the fifth disruptive computing paradigm after mainframes, PCs, the Internet, and mobile/social networking.
