Henry Ford: The Techno-Moral Apex
Henry Ford embodied the practical synthesis of techno-moral philosophies with his revolutionary industrial system: the assembly line, the $5 workday, and Fordism as a totalizing system. A model of productivity, control, and social engineering. 🇬🇧 EN 🇫🇷 FR #Fordism #IndustrialRevolution #TechnoMorality Henry Ford represents the practical synthesis of techno-moral philosophies through three revolutionary pillars in his industrial system:…

THE OUTDOOR MUSEUM…
The presence of the past. Look around, and you see it here and there in farmers fields, in the cities and in rural towns.
Here, near the southeastern Tasmanian town of Cygnet, lie relics of the Industrial Revolution, the age of steam power and the coming of the gasoline engine — the time of mechanical machines, the time that made us what we are now.
A rusting traction engine with its big fly wheel decays through the decades next to an early gasoline powered road roller. The traction engine was built by a London company. The road roller is Australian from back in the time when such things were made in this country.
And there they pass the years and the decades, relics of a time when we learned to turn thermal energy into mechanical energy and the long tail of technology that leads to where we are now.
