| Abstract [eng] |
This thesis is concerned with human evolution and technology evolution. There were two objectives set out at the beginning of scientific work. Firstly, to analyze the biological, cultural and technological evolution theories, their development and influence on each other. And secondly, to analyze whether the human and technical symbiosis can create the unit of human and technical form of life. The problem and relevance of this topic is related to today’s technical environment that surrounds peoples. The ideas of possibility of technical autonomy and independence are becoming more frequent in the technical researches and articles. So, there is a need to consider the extent and impact of technology to human evolution. According to Charles Darwin and his theory in the “Origin of Species” (1859), all species are descended from a common ancestor, we may consider that a man is not the ultimate goal of evolution and the human and technology symbiosis has the potential to create a new type of life form – a cyborg. This thesis includes the research of symbiosis between human and technic, when technical facility is implanted in the human body to design a being with extended or added new sensations. One of the organizations called Cyborg Nest that motivates the creation of new functionality of the senses motto is “Design your evolution”. This possess a perception that we can manage our own evolution. But we must not forget that the new unity is made of two symbiosis participants, both the living being – human and the technical beings. Thus, the evolution will not be carries out fully of human power, but also with the relationship with second participant – technical object. |
