Abstraction is the dominant thread of the 20th and 21st Centuries both at the economic level and at the level of perception. Financialization of capital, precarization of work, digitalisation of social communication. The aesthetic sphere has been part of this process of abstraction, from the age of Symbolism. Abstraction has particularly invested cognitive activity and the social dimension of cognitive work. The separation of the general intellect from the social body, and the internal fragmentation of the activity of the general intellect have to become the subject of our theoretical attention, and also the main focus of our therapeutic imagination. Recomposition of the general intellect means essentially the reconnection of the poet and the engineer. (Franco Berardi)
