John Dewey, amerikanischer Pragmatist, wollte seinen Lebenssinn darin sehen, den meßbaren Dingen zu entgehen. Er schrieb in Erfahrung und Natur:
„Das charakteristisch menschliche Bedürfnis ist das nach Besitz und Genuß der Bedeutung von Dingen, und dieses Bedürfnis wird im traditionellen Begriff des Nützlichen ignoriert und unbefriedigend gelassen.“ (Frf. 1995, S. 341)
Dewey meint, wir erfahren immer etwas, wenn wir in Bewegung bleiben und interagieren. Gewisse Ereignisse wirken auf uns, nicht alle gleichermaßen.
Genau diese bestimmten Ereignisse meint Dewey, wenn er von ästhetischen Erfahrungen spricht.
Ästhetische Erfahrungen lassen die Welt um uns für uns bedeutsam werden. Sie erscheint uns dann wie verwandelt oder besser als verwandelt. Das hält und macht uns lebendig. Lebenslang.
Solche Erfahrungen sind es auch, was uns nachdenklich macht. Nachdenkend, reflektierend. Reifer!
Freundschaft Freude Freiheit Naturismus

John Dewey, an American pragmatist, wanted to see the meaning of life in escaping measurable things. He wrote in Experience and Nature:
“The characteristically human need is for the possession and enjoyment of the meaning of things, and this need is ignored and left unsatisfied in the traditional concept of the useful.” (Frf. 1995, p. 341, germ. ed.)
According to Dewey, we always experience something when we remain in motion and interact. Certain events have an effect on us, not all of them equally.
It is precisely these certain events that Dewey means when he speaks of aesthetic experiences.
Aesthetic experiences allow the world around us to become meaningful to us. It then appears to us as transformed, or rather as transformed. This keeps us alive and makes us alive. For life.
Such experiences are also what make us thoughtful. Thoughtful, reflective. More mature!

Contemporary Philosophy
The invention of reality, the truth of a work, whether a philosophical, literary, artistic or a scientific, architectural, photographic work or a political, military, economic work or an artificially-naturally brought about reality as the truth of a work of climate change and consequences, – – – – the truth of a work (!!!) only reveals itself in the recognized and recognizable (!) history of its effects.
At the same time we think the impossible and that (this >at the same time<) is the impossible! (Derrida, Donner le temps I)
Philosophical Practice as Training / philosophical Practice and the training
Boredom Freedom to Work Trainings Education Future Human Being Democracy Philosophical Practice as Training
Free from having to work / free from the need to work / joblessness / work-free Education Humanity Future
Lust for the skills and their improvement
„Future, boredom, work-free, training, education, being human, democracy“.
Trainings – the material of the future?
Skills Discipline School Training and the Work Free Society in the Future!
At the beginning was a quote from my last posting:
„Cycling: Philosophy for Everyone / Philosophie des Radfahrens“ https://disseminationsdjayphilpraxkaucic.blogspot.com/2019/04/cycling-philosophy-for-everyone.html
„Physical Presentation as perfection of the personality as philosophia perennis;
Ecology as a necessity of our actions;
we do it in nature, – at least in culture-nature;
without nature no freeriding; without freeriding no balanced personality;
without skills no discipline;
without discipline there is no school and no educational ability;
without the will to educate no education, no civility, no civilization, no constitutional state, no democracy!“
Truth? Assertion?! Provocation?! Necessity? Illusion?! Utopia?! Dystopia?! Desire?! Hypertrophy?! Becoming democracy! Democracy on the rise?!
The work, as we know it today, organizes for the most part in the employee formation, this work or this „essential action of man“ (Marx) will be lost or taken away from us at least in the simpler forms.
This is ensured by computer and robot technologies (cf. my posting: „MASCHINE MENSCH Roboter Androiden Cyborgs als Subjekt Dekonstruktion“)
Education or even better „training“ is the word of the hour. (!?)
We need skills and training in order to find our way in the world as >unemployed<(!)/work-freed (in the conventional form understood also economically a particularly difficult way of survival!).
A world without conventional work for us humans. A life in a world that we do not have to earn with our hands work.
The economic basis for our life is provided by the means of production and wealth taxation (90%, Piketty) and their just and fair political and legal design (cf. Thomas Piketty, Kapital und Ideologie, fr. edition 2019, german ed. 2020;
In the future, we must shape our own lives, recognize our desires and learn to assess their realization possibilities. For this we need a good, contemporary education.
An education that prepares us for the complexity of the world as ecological.
An education that disciplines us and prepares us.
A training of human education.
A training especially on the behavioural level in interaction with cognition.
Perception, attention, concentration, argumentation, expansion of imagination.
A training for embedding into the various attractions of society and their intelligent and disciplined handling.
A relatively new field of activity here would be the gaming of e-athletes, a longer invented field the freeriding in various disciplines, to name only two recent inventions or developments, which show a life outside the world of workers and employees.
The future might have many fields of activities of this or similar kind.
Children, pupils, people acquire knowledge in one or more fields, which enables them to strengthen their own individual identity.
At the same time, they acquire knowledge that enables them to adapt individually to the situation that has arisen as a result of their activity knowledge.
Knowledge, empowerment, skills develop their own personality through training and its improvement.
The development of skills and abilities improves individual identity.
The ability and the willingness to change in a disciplined way means the processing of the individual and the processing of knowledge.
We found an example of such a way of life in Reinhold Messner’s person – the three of us quickly agreed on that.
In our small group of three I took the liberty of modestly pointing out that my now 66 years of life and perhaps my way of life as a philosopher, writer and head of a philosophical practice (philosophical practitioner for more than 36 years) could also provide an example of how people as humanity could spend their lives in the medium to distant future, perhaps also in many individual cases.
To say it completely simply and briefly:
A happy, – on all or at least many levels, – and very satisfying life with and through practice, training, experience, reflection and self-reflection and not least through a well-dosed interaction with relatively many, but not too many, passionate and thinking people!
According to various studies, this is only true for a few people in a population like Austria.
Accordingly, almost 70 percent are dissatisfied with their professional activities – their jobs!
The ability and the readiness for disciplined change means the processing of the individual and the processing of knowledge!
A small insertion for identity formation or insecurity:
Already in the family we have a small social structural framework, which is again and again in danger of dissolution, e.g. by the addition of new brothers and sisters or for instance by worse accidents etc..
According to Luhmann, the child already arrives at school structurally dissolved, meaning that the child has had to make challenging experiences that have put the familiar structure of a social situation at risk of (perhaps even total) dissolution or a dissolution that is actually taking place (cf. Niklas Luhmann, „Strukturauflösung durch Interaktion: Ein analytischer Referenzrahmen“, Soziale Systeme 17, 2011).
Children are confronted with many interactions and interventions. Adults too.
But are these children adequately (!) trained in our schools and homes today and are they trained at all?
Are our children trained in seeing through and recognizing people and their actions? Are they trained, educated, taught in respect and relativity with a factual argumentative background?
Have we been and are we being trained for mobility in respectful argumentation due to an improved imagination and inventiveness.
In schools, universities, academies and also in companies?
Have we been encouraged and trained to be critical in both directions?
To criticise and endure criticism?!
Transitions from one situation to another are always critical transitions.
Will I make the transition?
Am I sufficiently trained for the new?
Have we been able to do trainings of this and other kinds in school?
Our societies are media societies, made medially and medially. We as individuals are made medially and medially (cf. Moira Gatens). Our societies need critical citizens, otherwise the many media changes in the current situation cannot be mastered. Is our school knowledge and our school training (e.g. in project group dynamics) critical enough for this?
Have we learned which contexts are necessary to classify certain information? Have we designed the education sufficiently for the training for the handling, the critical handling, with the electronic media?
Do we attach enough importance to the acquisition of critical comparative knowledge, to respectful interaction with others and respectful interaction with tradition and knowledge authority?
(cf. also N. Luhmann, The Educational System of Society)
The difference in the form of education is:
a) hardly any exercises in and on the technological medium, i.e. more or less unintentional socialisation mostly through oral instructions as abstract content for the classroom, or
b) education through training of all kinds for self-education as disciplined adaptation, – a kind of self-formatting (whether through well-founded acquired knowledge of self-chosen/discovered reading for further trained ability to differentiate, competence responsibilities and motivation intensification or through project development together with other non-dominant participants under the premise of free will with consciousness including beginning and end freely according to the opinion of all motivated participants).
This is the only way for disciplined adaptation to sometimes complex situation relations to occur.
This is the only way fruitful education can take place!
In the family constellation or relationship constellation of any kind, in schools and also in companies.
Also and especially in the respective futures.
Exercise, training, awareness of mediality, skills, abilities, competence, capability, education, awareness/knowledge (also about the „ghost“(!) of the Ubw (cf. Freud, Lacan, Derrida), decision-making ability, critical criticism awareness, training, exercise, practice.
Life as Performance!
Life an exercise?!
In(ter)vention
All of us practicing individuals? All of us in the future? No work?! Free from economic survival care?? Free and safe!!???? Before death????!!! Life is an exercise-out/exertion.
Towards the temporary end:
Training and its effects on the human being arise from the interplay of stimuli from outside (events diffusing outside the human body and their recognizable or perceptible and ever-changing stimulus of experience) and from inside (stimuli arising inside the human body).
Desirable things thus arise and set us in motion. Training is a passing and past movement.
Targeted training – training with recognizable and formulationable intention can form us. In the positive as in the negative! How and whether the individual knows how to distinguish between these depends very much on the upbringing, the education, the practice – in total on the surrounding „world“ and its realities.
If my little remarks and remarks on the subject of our longer conversation on the subject of „Philosophical Practice and/as Training“ are of any of you, I mean you as a reader, as a reader of this little text here, – so some of you should seem incomprehensible to some here, you may be right about that.
I would like to encourage you then to a training in reading and understanding and invite you to Paul de Man and his „Allegories of Reading“ (Frf. 1988, Suhrkamp).
In this book and his essays you will find explanations and citations on the complex of „reading“ and „understanding“ and their presupposition in the „incomprehensibility“ of communication as „text“.
And now, still for the time being, quoting Niklas Luhmann once again in conclusion, for him unsuccessful communication is the normal case and an „improbability that has become invisible in everyday understanding“ (cf. Niklas Luhmann, Social Systems. Outline of a general theory. rf. 1984, p. 216f., germ. ed.).
For the time being, however, I will end these few hints about the future, training, practice in democracy as a successful education and disciplined adaptation to situations of higher complexity with a few quoted lines from Peter Sloterdijk (from: P. Sl., Du mußt dein Leben ändern. Über Anthropotechnik. Frankfurt 2009, (Suhrkamp) p. 14) and thank my two engaged guests for the passionate conversation in my philosophical practice here in Vienna in the past days.
Quote:
„The one who speaks of man’s self-generation without speaking of its formation in the exercising life has missed the subject from the beginning. We must therefore suspend practically everything that has been said about man as a working being in order to translate it into the language of exercising or self-forming and self-enhancing behavior. …
It is time to reveal man as the living being that arises from repetition. As the 19th century was cognitively marked by production, the 20th by reflexivity, the future was to present itself under the sign of exercises/exertions.“
Vivification through deconstruction is necessary.
The liberation from the melancholy of the closeness of the word, the simplicity of words, the totality of beliefs, the meaningfulness of non-contextualized sentences.
Mistrust the slogans! Mistrust the sentences! Every sentence a leap.
Worlds between the sentences. Worlds in the sentences. World in every sentence, – in every jump!
Aesthetically and ethically at the same time!
Deconstruction has an ethical component !
Deconstruction has an ethical component, – perhaps even a goal orientation (without wanting or being able to be a method or criticism), – a goal orientation towards responsibility for the other!
My life’s work – my philosophical practice!
Deconstruction is and always will be the questioning of the origins, the foundations and the limits of our conceptual, theoretical and normative apparatus.
And this always in the double movement of the Différance.
This is exactly what I am trying to achieve in my decades of work in my practice.
Now already 36 years, – almost my adult life long, 1989 – 2025 ff., deconstruction, – means: 36 years, open end, indoor / outdoor, more than 3500 conversations, discourse, associations, analysis, problematization, identity dislocation, subjectivation, formalization, folding, complication, aporia, deconstruction, supporting/concomitement/accompaniment.
And many, many journeys and just as many guests in my long practice time.
I must let myself be touched! Let myself be touched for this limited period of time! Without movement there is no touch, without touch there is no emotion, without emotion there is no strong, vivifying, living experience. Hardly a life! Hardly a life without life experiences (!?). Hardly a life without some kind of experience (!?).
Experience first and foremost requires affirmation, otherwise it is not experience (!?). I have to affirm something, praise it, recognize it in order to be able to recognize and touch something and to be touched by something! Otherwise it is merely something pushed towards me, a pain, an unrecognized, perhaps unrecognizable touch. An inexpressible and unspeakable thing! A kind of trauma.
In his “Rhetoric”, Aristotle writes that we should praise the virtues and, above all, the successes of those we admire. He believes that by praising things and events, we give them “beauty and meaning” (! ) and Aristotle also believes that the trope of amplification is appropriate for this – that is, the expressive, passionate mode of expression that lifts the “hero”, the “heroine”, the “artist”, the ‘artiste’, out of the everyday and the commonplace and thus at the same time also allows the spectator to participate in a kind of “sublimity” (cf. Kant, Lyotard).
This participation perhaps increases the perceived intrinsic value by being part of the party. The feeling of the beauty ( cf. Goethe ) of something. The beauty of art. The beauty of sport – of the sporty. The beauty of movement and those in motion. The beauty of the practiced. The beauty of the well-trained. The beauty of the artist. The beauty and meaningfulness of the artistic! That which can only be achieved through extraordinary physical effort. The unattainable! For almost everyone (!?).
However, by practicing and exercising something, some people can attain a little of this kind of “sublimity”/being elevated (from the multitude of the ordinary) and enjoy it and about it and through it. Can man rejoice in himself/through himself?
I think I can. I am happy when I can and am allowed to move. I am happy when I experience sport (whether cycling, soccer, handball, basketball, tennis, badminton, swimming, boxing, aikido, floor and apparatus gymnastics, weightlifting, 100-meter runs, cross-country skiing, marathons, etc.) – as a spectator. As a spectator and as a practitioner. I enjoy others who are better than me (at something) and I enjoy my own abilities.
I’m talking about my physical abilities in particular – my “artistic” abilities, so to speak. I’m referring in particular (today and here) to my cycling, my ability on a bike. I enjoy it. I enjoy this kind of movement and the movement it triggers.
I need the repetition of this movement. I need the power, the strength of the body. I appreciate the characteristics of the machine, my bike. It can’t be often enough for me. I never get bored.
Every repetition is different and, strictly speaking, not repetitive. I use different bikes ( see What is Philosophical Practice? (II) Part 2 ) and I always take different paths. Each time a different topography, a different and differently challenging terrain. I love that. And I especially love riding my Enduro at the moment, my “fun work”! Those in the know know what that means.

This bike is the all-rounder, the all-rounder that makes almost everything possible, even if the rider (bike rider) that I am is far from being able to do everything.
„Sport and fun, passion, philosophy and fun, humor, fear, seriousness and skill, body, strength, finesse and mechanics. What does that do to modern, risk-taking people!“
Can philosophy do anything with this? Can philosophers do anything with it?
Do something with it? Develop passion? Enjoy it?
And still not lose their minds afterwards? Remain critical?
And be or become joyful people?
Artists in your field?!

Deconstruction enables the relationship to the other and the relationship to the other enables (perhaps) deconstruction. Différance as a matter of freedom and liberation.
Time becoming of space and space becoming of time and being different, being recognizable, not being identical! Only he who is not equal to all others is recognizable as one, as another!
Otherness from the dissimilar logically requires that between the distinguishable units or elements interval, distance, spatialization emerge in persistent repetition (Derrida, Randgänge, p. 33, german edition!). Other, Other, Other, …

Giving a picture
„You’ll never know, you won’t know, all the stories I could tell myself while looking at these pictures.“ (Derrida, Plissart)
And this always in the double movement of Différance.
Sentences that mean the world!
Sentences that interpret the truth!
What the philosophical practice wants and can do – in search of the true life, „the true life“.
Deconstruction cannot be included in a „term“ deconstruction.
And deconstruction opens up or opens up an access to the other through discoveries of the unknown or the previously unthought.
Deconstruction cannot be defined or completed (cf. J. Derrida, Limited Inc, p. 171 ff., germ. edition).
Deconstruction is and always will be the questioning of the origins, the foundations and the limits of our conceptual, theoretical and normative apparatus. And this always in the double movement of the Différance / Différance .
A text that perhaps consists of habitual (binary) thesis and antithesis, when deconstructed, reveals, for example, a multitude of perspectives that exist simultaneously – often in conflict with each other.
This conflict, however, only becomes visible through deconstruction.
Deconstruction has an ethical component, since it opens the relationship to the other, insofar as it finds access to the previously unimagined or the previously excluded and possibly invents or finds new social, new interpersonal, new political, new scientific, new legal, new technical, new philosophical and artistic ways of thinking and acting (cf. E. Lévinas and J. Derrida).
Philosophical practice could make a not insignificant contribution to this, I think.
Deconstruction has an ethical component !

Practice and Practices: What happens in a philosophical practice like ours. What happens in a philosophical practice? What is a philosophical practice? What is philosophical practice? ( see below in this blog post and see especially above in the teaser ! ) What happens in my philosophical practice.
The compact citation context text „Corpus“ here (!) is owed to a lucid, precise and concise reading accuracy and reading simultaneity (strictly speaking only almost / nearby!) – a kind of grammatological necessity of thinking!
In my grammatological philosophical practice we do not formulate about something, not about texts (said / unsaid / thought / interpreted / written / drawn / filmed / meant / mediated / realities of any kind) // (in relation and reference to supposed truths of reality), but we work as precisely as possible as readers of a text passage by reading it and subsequently analysing the concrete (!) ( and only these!). ) linguistic units and perpetual incessant interrelation (!) of the analyzed and its decoding by deconstruction of all (!) implications, references, (un) thoughts and the thinking of the trace ( cf. teaser on grammatology and on the trace: „The trace in which the relationship to the other emerges expresses its possibility in the whole realm of the existing, which metaphysics has determined from the hidden movement of the trace as being present. It is necessary to think the trace before the existing. … Op. cit., Jacques Derrida: Grammatologie, Suhrkamp, pp. 81-88 ).
And all this almost in the form of the locally almost tangible „simultaneity“ (!), – thus in the form of highest attention to the text just read and in question now (!).
After all, in quite a considerable and appropriate topicality and freshness of the respective present time and as present ego (!), – thus of a bold and courageous kind of acuteness (!) in the time of a present and present and present as well as in the formatting/configuration of a space of the desired, ( perhaps „dreamed“! ), and as realistically first of all unthought through presence of ego and ego.

CONTEMPORARY PHILOSOPHY
PHILOSOPHY OF THE 21ST CENTURY
PHILOSOPHIZING IN THE 21ST CENTURY
The Heir to Philosophy. The heritage of Greek philosophy. The heritage of Greek philosophy as a European Philosophy a paradox.
The philosophical work, the work of the différance, means for us the recognition of the own borders, the ethnocentric, the geographical, the politgeographical and the linguistic borders and at the same time the permanent exceedance of these borders without defaming or discriminating against them.
PHILOSOPHIZING IN THE 21ST CENTURY
The legacy of Greek philosophy is the incessant process of universalization. Hence the universalization of human rights, the expansion and thus the liberation of ethnic, political, cultural and linguistic borders.
Greek philosophy and its legacy as European thought is a thinking of the critical critique of reason, of displacement, indeed of identity dislocation as a kind of change of consciousness, of transformation and of temporary uprooting and redesign.
The design or the possibility – first the mental possibility of a new design of one’s own (!) self.
The European descent of philosophy as overcoming this European and Eurocentric limitation. The liberation also from European centrism. The constant development of universalization as liberation and self-break. This is the contradiction of Europe itself. Europe and universalization as the deconstruction of one’s own restriction, of one’s own restriction, of colonization and imperialization – also of economic imperialization.
The heritage of Greek philosophy a universalization. The heritage of Greek philosophy a liberation from constraints and limitations of cultural, political, ethnic, sexual and linguistic nature(!). Infinite perfection, for example, and above all the infinite perfection of the human rights.
And finally …
As in the newer music since Cage, Stockhausen and others, silence, pauses, noises, gestures are just as important as what you hear and what you (supposedly?) hear. The oh so important pauses, holes, crumbling of the unheard and the unsaid, over which the said, thought, heard jumps incessantly (unfortunately incessantly!).
Every sentence a jump!
Common thinking jumps in the usual rhythm of index words generated by repetition, unreflected repetition. What can unfold in the process is more likely to be the least possible.
Let us try to hold against it by taking the trouble to work behind it. Our PPs. Our philosophical practices and their practicings. I salute you. Stay cool and considerate.
With kind regards, – Gerhard Kaučić (Dr. phil., age 66, born 1959) Djay PhilPrax, operator and head of a philosophical practice since 1989 here in Vienna and almost everywhere else in and around the world.

DECONSTRUCTION HAS AN ETHICAL COMPONENT!
Conversations are events of a very or more or less intelligent being together of two or more people on a topic to be determined.
Conversations in this kind of philosophical practice are confidential!
Conversations are therefore text events without a protocol.
Conversations in my philosophical practice result in this blog as a further text event (and at the same time as a presupposition!).
For the question and the word „deconstruction“ see Jacques Derrida’s „Reflections“ in a „Letter to a Japanese Friend“ from 1985, translated into German and reprinted in: J. Derrida, Psyche. Inventions of the Other II. Vienna 2013 (Passagen Verlag.), pp. 15 – 22.
„The word „deconstruction“, like any other, draws its meaning value only from an inscription into a chain of possible substitutions, into what is so calmly called a „context“. (ibid., p. 21)
„Despite all appearances, deconstruction is in any case neither an analysis nor a critique … It is not an analysis, particularly because the decomposition of a structure is not a decline to a simple element, to an origin that cannot be further decomposed. These values, such as that of analysis, are themselves philosophemes exposed to deconstruction“. ( S. 19)
„Deconstruction is in place, it is an event (événement) that does not wait for the reflection, the consciousness or the organization of the subject, not even of modernity. It deconstructs itself.“ (S. 20)
Philosophy … Deconstruction … „Right to Insight, or the Invention of the Other“ (cf. J. Derrida, Psyche. Erfindung des Anderen, Vienna 2011)
