The conversation on November 29, 2022, at the City Hotel was held as part of the Ljubljana Meetings and Humanistic Correspondence organized by INR. After the discussion, Žarko Paić and Andrej Božič also presented the October issue of Tvrđa magazine and the June issue of Phainomena magazine, dedicated to “Hermeneutics in literature”. Dean Komel spoke with Žarko Paić about the publication of his book “Misljenje in brezno zgodovine” – from Metaphysics to the Technosphere, which was translated into Slovak by Samo Krušič, and was published by INR. Žarko Paić, professor of aesthetics at the University of Zagreb, is the author of numerous books in the field of social and humanities, such as “Slika berez sveta”, “Posthuman state”, “The age of oligarchy”, “Technosphere I-V”, “Nihilism in modernity”, editor of the magazine Tvrđa, and co-editor of the European Herald. the understanding of modern philosophy has a special place in this framework. Paić thinks about the possibility of the coming philosophy after its essence is realized in the triad of metaphysics, cybernetics and transhumanism. It should not be specifically mentioned that it is an attempt to pave the path to thinking, which according to Heidegger and Deleuze no longer represents itself, that the future is open to philosophy and that it can easily fill a plural series i.e. the philosophy of technoscience, film, culture, visuality, etc. The book of selected essays Opinion in the Void of History – from metaphysics to the Technosphere includes a systematic theoretical analysis of the fundamental problem of modern times, how to convince freedom as a possibility of human meaning, because the destructive power of the technosphere network appears as an immanent transcendence of artificial living, which turns all alternatives into pseudo-utopias and illusory actions of the world of the living.

Symposium: Žarko Paić (HTV 3, 2015.)
Does aesthetics still exist as a philosophical discipline or does it, by its essential definition, just like art history, belong to the past? Can we still use the classical philosophical apparatus of understanding art today at all, or do we have to apply a completely new “grammar and syntax” when understanding art? Does aesthetics lose its object and no longer question the concept of beauty? For Heidegger, the paradigmatic art was poetry, for Benjamin, Deleuze, photography and film. Is it performance itself today? Ph.D. talks about aesthetics in the “Symposium”. Žarko Paić, professor at the Faculty of Textile Technology in Zagreb.
Treća zemlja: tehnosfera i umjetnost (2014.)
The relationship between technology and art is one of the most important issues of today. How to think about art in the age of the technosphere in which it no longer depicts or represents existing worlds? How can we open up a space for thinking about art as an experience of freedom and emergence, what is the performative-conceptual turn of contemporary art, and is there a third country for man, beyond dystopian reality and utopian longing? In the conversation with the guests, Miško Šuvaković and Žarko Paić, the author of the just-published book Treća zemlja, the aforementioned topics were discussed. (TV)
