Heidegger’s intention to go beyond the anthropological-instrumental conception of techne does not result in a mythopoeia of technology as a fate to which one must resign oneself, nor in a suggestion of becoming an active accomplice in the unstoppable advance of technology. In Heidegger’s dialogue with Heisenberg, during the series of conferences on Arts in the Technological Age, there emerges the aspect of technology conceived as “historical happening”, which is essentially distinct from “historiographic observation”. The former aspect appears to be decisive to reformulate the idea of Seinsgeschichte, and although it does not propose a solution to the controversial question of the role of human activity in technology, it does allow a new insight into the position of man in a world where he has no right to think of himself as master of all beings.
