11.4. Learning Task 4.

2: Modern Technology
According to Heidegger, technology is necessary for disclosing and relates to both
technique and knowledge. Furthermore, we now live in an upgraded world with several current
technology that make our daily lives easier. Solar power, for example, is one of hundreds of
technologies that has a significant impact on reducing the use of electricity generated from
natural resources by generating power from sunshine. Solar power systems, which use lenses or
mirrors and solar tracking systems to focus a broad region of sunlight into a tiny beam, can also
transfer energy from sunshine into electricity. Using the photovoltaic effect, photovoltaic cells
convert light into an electric current.
That enframing is, in fact, the essence of technology in terms of how the real manifests
itself as the standing reserve. We are also responsible for the world because of humanity's
attitude toward it. Solar power, on the other hand, can be advantageous because it allows us to
supply electricity while also allowing us to save energy. For example, it enables us to harness the
sun's clean, pure energy. Having panels also aids in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions
and our joint reliance on fossil fuels. Because traditional electricity is derived from fossil fuels
such as coal and natural gas, it will also aid in the conservation of electrical and human
resources. Along with the standing reserve, we can utilize it to have a supply of electricity when
there are power outages, and we can use it in a good and productive way to be more productive
and maintain our human resources if we have control over our usage and use it in a good and
productive way.
As a result, if we approach our technologies through the lens of the arts or poetry, the arts
have a strong ability to develop communities around performances and other events. In addition,
technologies can assist us in expressing ourselves in more productive and meaningful ways, such
as through the arts and poetry. For example, if we perceive technological breakthroughs and
creative activities as important, necessary, and vital for cultural-technology progress, they should
not be viewed as fringe or luxury undertakings. Furthermore, this conception supports social-
transformative potential and has implications for technological ethics and responsible innovation,
not to mention a new way of thinking about innovation. We are all artists, not in the sense that
we all go out and become artists, but rather that we assimilate more of the artist's and poet's
vision into our own worldview. We can avoid the pitfalls of enframing by doing so, and instead
enter into a "free"—always critical, always questioning—relationship with the technology that is
constantly intruding into our lives.
