Abstract

Foucault’s vocabulary of arts of existence might be helpful to problematize the entwinement of humans and technology and to search for new types of hybrid selves However to be a serious new ethical vocabulary for technology this art of existence should be supplemented with an ongoing critical discourse of technologies including a critical analysis of the subjectivities imposed by technologies and should be supplemented with new medical and philosophical regimens for an appropriate use of technologiesOpen AccessThis article is distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 40 International License http//creativecommonsorg/licenses/by/40/ which permits unrestricted use distribution and reproduction in any medium provided you give appropriate credit to the original authors and the source provide a link to the Creative Commons license and indicate if changes were made
