The automobile, a defining piece of 20th century technology, may thus be seen as a modern-day, material analogue of the immortal soul. This may explain why advertising can make such a fuss over these smelly, frequently murderous machines. We see our souls dislodged from ourselves in their sleek efficiency. Now, if there's anything to Plato's metaphor, technology and the psyche are symbiotically in bed with each other. Technology is the instrument through which the psyche circulates in the cosmos and feeds on the luminosities of the divine order.
Technology is transportation, but transportation serving the needs of the psyche.
A heavenly holiday. It's interesting to look at 21st century technology in light of this link to the psyche. We get a lot of clues just looking at language. Through the telephone the psychic becomes material, the unwired, wired. The new heaven and earth have arrived.
