The increasing technical capacity of industrial culture, though affording a rising standard of living, also revolves around an exponentially concentrated degree of economic-as-political power in which social control—through public and private channels of observation indissociable from personal interest—lead reciprocally to (in justifying their continued use within and, or according to the selves) the obliteration of independence, freedom of speech expressive, change—hegemony.

Raising the question of science’s rationalizing objectivity in relation to the human capacity for understanding and interpretation results from the necessity of comparing words conceptually to other similar cases never the same.
The sense that one’s self seems deceptively stable, but fixed is complicated in trying to determine any boundaries between what is conscious and remains unknown must address relations between mind and that which one perceives.
