This new translation of four revised radio interviews, conducted in December 2002 at France Culture with Élie During, is the best introduction to Stiegler’s Time and Technics series. This collection includes a new interview conducted specially for this volume and an interview with Artpress from 2001. In Philosophising By Accident, Stiegler introduces some of the key arguments about the technical constitution of the human and its relation to politics, aesthetics and economics. He reads philosophical texts from the perspective of his controversial thesis about the three types of memory and speaks about concepts central to his later works, such as synchrony/diachrony, grammatisation and the industrial temporal object.
Bernard Stiegler is a French philosopher. He is head of the Institut de recherché et d’innovation (IRI) which he founded in 2006 at the Centre Georges-Pompidou. He is also the founder of the political and cultural group, Ars Industrialis, and the founder in 2010 of the philosophy school, Ecole de Philosophie d’Épineuil-le-Fleuriel. His works include the three-volume series Technics and Time (now out of print in France) translated into English and published by Stanford University Press (1998, 2009, 2011). Philosopher par accident was published in 2004 by Galilée and is now out of print. Benoît Dillet is Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow, Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies (FRIAS), University of Freiburg, Germany. He is co-editor of Technologiques: La Pharmacie de Bernard Stiegler (Cécile Defaut, 2013) and The Edinburgh Companion to Poststructuralism (Edinburgh University Press, 2013; paperback).
