dc.description.abstract | This essay attempts to trace a personal journey from a liberal humanist
stance to an awareness of non-dualism within the altering landscape of contemporary
advances in technology. My fundamental argument is that the single inimitable
characteristic of human consciousness is an ability to encompass non-dual thought
and that this capacity can a priori not be copied, scanned or uploaded into an
informational matrix that operates through bi-polar antimonies. | en |
