Matricality - The Art of picking a Locke OR to Hume it may concern OR putting Descartes before the borscht

Rating: 9/10 (19 April 1999)

The Matrix, according to Martin Heidegger's posthumous comments, is the conclusion of the destining of the last 2000 years of western philosophy (or, at least, the last couple of hours of western philosophy). First, Plato's myth of the cave - then much later - Descartes' pineal gland and its vibrations, Locke's secondary qualities, self-enclosed non-disclosive Humean impressions, Kant's appearances -- and finally the Gestell -- you have now the Essence of the Matrix.
