Really, Flusser Was Right

Long arc of human expression betrays all theories and predictions of the End of Whatever Mode of Behavior and Expression.

Flusser used strong language in “Does Writing Have a Future?” to encourage us to create writing’s future.

As we have done.

He suggests in the subscript:

Yesterday I acted like a child.

Today I have done it again:

Because I know it makes no sense to do so.

There are people who write because they think it still makes sense, and there are people who no longer write but go back to kindergarten. And then there are people who write despite knowing that it makes no sense. This essay is actually directed at the first two but dedicated to the third.

Subscript

I created all this Flussierian writing using the following tools and methods:

  1. Flusser’s book and writings https://flusserstudies.net/flusser

  2. My reading of the book here and there over the years

  3. My content I wrote on here at WorksOnBecoming.com and Medium etc

  4. Claude.ai from Anthropic to make several browser based interactives

  5. My art I used to train a model on Exactly.ai

  6. Suno.ai to create the music and voice track

  7. Sora with the content from my previous Flusser Future Forward

  8. MacOS Screenrecording while I live scrubbed on sora while playing the Suno track.

  9. Adobe Premiere 2025 to compose the screen recording together with the suno wav track and create closed captions.
