Today I was sitting on the bus and it occurred to me that we could never have had something like a QR code for smartphones on a poster anouncing the lauch of a new bus line if it were not for the industrialization that brought about the division of not only labors but also knowledge, and most importantly the corporation between these divisions that is functioning almost as presumptuous as an ecosystem. However the ecosystem is governed by some natural laws, and yet the ecosystem of an industrialized human society is more likely to or at least believed to be governed by the consciousness of its smallest components, the individual persons themselves. Or maybe we just believe we act on our own while we don't.
I was actually thinking about something else before I came to see this side of the industrialization. As it has always been, I was feeling frustrated at how difficult it is for someone who is good at building up things, but not good enough, to build on top of a leviathan. How can you ever find something that is not already lying there, somewhere, inside the library? And then as always I blamed it to industrialization for building these leviathans, so that I could no longer build them myself. And then I came to realize how amazingly these leviathans actually coexisted and corporated as they do when a state owned bus company makes a poster with QR codes.
Yet still people are not happy, and they are still looking. It is amazing how some parts of us never evolved, with which some ancients get to live all their way up to still being able to confuse us now, like a poor playing around a rich, who accumulated wealth but forgot something else. Tocquille was doing exactly the same when he observed what the more promising American democracy was doing, or not doing, to the intellect.
