The task is therefore to develop a philosophy of nature for the anthropocene that is neither nostalgic nor reductionist, and that embraces both Romantic sensitivity and materialistic rigour. #PhilSky #LitSky #Schelling #Goethe open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

1/10 How can Romanticism’s nature philosophy resonate with 21st-century New Materialism? This essay explores Goethe, Schelling, & Ritter as “resonance figures” for today’s ecological & ontological crises. (erwin-ott.web.app/ott-romantis...) #PhilSky #Naturphilosophie #NewMaterialism #LitSky

1/10 Money isn’t just a tool—it’s a living system shaped by code, cables, bodies & power. If we don’t understand its agency, we can’t understand the world we live in. erwin-ott.web.app/ott-geld.html #philsky #Money #Philosophy

The challenge before us is not to resurrect the illusion of human mastery but to develop new forms of understanding, responsibility, and governance that take seriously the material agency of money. #PhilSky open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

The Essay rethinks van Dyck’s portrait of the Stuart brothers as a site where matter and meaning refuse separation. It isn’t just pigment or symbol - it’s a relational field where social order and materiality co-constitute each other. erwin-ott.web.app/ott-dyck.html) #PhilSky #ArtTheory

It is the eventfulness that makes the portrait not just a masterpiece of Baroque art but a philosophical provocation, one that continues to resonate long after the paint has dried and the brothers have faded into history. open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

1/10 How can philosophy think a reality independent of human consciousness? The essay looks at Meillassoux' critique of modern philosophy’s “correlationism” and offers a radical alternative via post-structuralism. #PhilSky #Philosophy #Meillassoux (erwin-ott.web.app/ott-meillass...

The true Copernican revolution is the dissolution of the subject and the embrace of the immanent absolute: the endless, dynamic, decentered becoming of the real. open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

The beat is a philosophical event - an illusion that reveals, a stability that dissolves, a unity that disappears. It is not just sound; it is ontology in motion. #PhilSky open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

To philosophize in sound is to embrace withdrawal, to think not about the unsayable but from within it. #PhilSky open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

1/10 How to think sound when it resists fixation? The essay “From the Philosophy of Sound to Philosophy in Sound” merges Christoph Cox’s *Sonic Flux* with the *via negativa* - a radical aesthetics of withdrawal. das.ubernerden.com/ott-cox.html #PhilSky #SoundPhilosophy #Apophatics

1/10 Theessay explores Raymond Geuss as an “anti-heroic” philosopher in our postmetaphysical age. Geuss rejects grand narratives, embracing skepticism & historical context over normative certainties. #Philosophy #Geuss #PoliticalTheory #Philsky das.ubernerden.com/ott-geuss.html

Geuss' texts refuse the consolation that comes from the idea that one has now found the "right" system. Instead, they invite us to understand thinking as a continued diagnostic practice - a practice that needs no heroes. #PhilSky open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

1/10 The paper traces the rise of "static philosophy" in Western thought - a tradition characterised by ideas of unchanging substances, fixed essences, and linear causality. #Philosophy #Metaphysics #HistoryOfIdeas #PhilSky das.ubernerden.com/haferkrug-st...

The preoccupation with unchanging substances, fixed essences, and linear causality is not a universal feature of human thought but a historically contingent development that has shaped (and distorted) the path of Western philosophy, science, and culture. #Philsky open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

1/10 TA Schulz' "Schattenontologie und Rheoplegma" explores how "Schattenontologie" (E. Ott) & Rheoplegma (G. Haferkrug) redefine reality, knowledge, and ethics in the 21st century. das.ubernerden.com/schulz-schat... #Philosophy #Ontology #PostMetaphysics #Anthropozän #Philsky

1/10 The essay asks whether AI is merely the culmination of "Gestell" - Heidegger’s concept of the world reduced to calculable resource - or if it opens unexpected pathways for human thought. das.ubernerden.com/ott-heidegge... #Heidegger #AI #PhilosophyOfTechnology #DigitalHumanities #PhilSky

The digital Datenlichtung is a new kind of clearing where meaning emerges not from depth but from surface, not from essence but from interaction, and in which we are forced to confront the contingency and constructedness of our own thought and truth. #PhilSky open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

1/10 A new paper by Georgina Haferkrug introduces a radical framework for an understanding of being as a dynamic, rhythmic process. #Postmetaphysics #PhilosophyOfBecoming #Ontology #PhilSky das.ubernerden.com/haferkrug-rh...

"Rheoplegma" is a call to rethink our understanding of reality, to embrace its fluidity and complexity, and to approach it with curiosity and humility. open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

Music thus becomes the paradoxical answer to the silence of metaphysics: not by establishing new systems of meaning, but by making the unreconciled, the fragmentary, and the unfulfilled experiential. #PhilSky open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

1/10: The essay critically reconstructs the concept of contingency in postmetaphysical philosophy, addressing its conceptual vagueness and overextension. This paper offers a genealogy, systematics, and ethical reflection. das.ubernerden.com/ott-kontinge... #PhilSky #Contingency #Postmetaphysics

Contingency’s ubiquity has led to a crisis of meaning, where the term is often used more as a stylistic device than as a rigorous conceptual framework. To reclaim its analytical power, we must establish clearer boundaries for its application. #PhilSky open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

Imagine it as a spark ignited between Fichte’s rigorous exploration of the ego and the later flourishing of German Idealism. open.substack.com/pub/erwinott...

10/10 The paper highlights apophatic thought’s enduring relevance across disciplines, from theology to science. It invites further research into its intercultural and interdisciplinary potential. #Apophatik #Philosophy

1/10 "Beyond the Paradigm" argues for a post-paradigmatic economics inspired by 20th-century scientific revolutions. While physics and philosophy transformed radically, economics still often clings to metaphysical frameworks. #Economics #ParadigmShift #philsky das.ubernerden.com/ott-postpara...

1/10 "From Archive to Platform" introduces Shadow Ontology, a critical lens for understanding knowledge in the digital age. It builds on Foucault’s archive concept to explore how platforms and AI reshape what’s knowable. #Philosophy #DigitalCulture #philsky das.ubernerden.com/ott-archiv-p...
