In pre-Socratic Greece, Heraclitus assumed that the only constant was change. This vision of reality in perpetual flux is being revived today in the face of an experience of technological acceleration that places becoming in the position of the rule. As Byung-Chul Han warns, intensified contingency destabilizes life: we lack a symbolic framework that establishes stable temporal axes. If for Heraclitus change was the law that sustained the order of the cosmos, in our time, mutation without points of anchor threatens to dissolve any kind of certainty. The challenge lies precisely in the production of frameworks of meaning that make change habitable.
