A Universal Truth and Hybrid
Hybrid, a way of thinking, which brings out the expansion of thinking as recognizing, deconstructing and mixing, is creating another species using hybrid mechanism both tangibly and intangibly in modern days. Different with past that studied the single code like drilling a hole, it studies through the decodifiying and mutidirectional interaction in the field of the science, economics, art and agriculture. Furthermore there is a situation that mixes across the boundary of each other and creates continuously something.
In the future the coming of android is expected and hybrid will advance unceasingly. That is, the aspect of ‘A Universal Truth’ that we believe is going to be changed. There will be no boundary between the animal and the plant and the machine and the living thing will be mixed. That means the desire of human makes species change with the power of the imagination. It can be translated as human beings go against the god, but human beings must ‘create’ things to identify themselves continuously (instinctive achievement of desire), so the world of hybrid will never stop.
The work from the researcher with these thoughts mixes, breaks, cuts, unrelates the living things and the artificial machineries, and makes another relation with the original. The process of the junction, the other sides of Deconstruction, its order can be hypocritical or disguised, but it aims Jacques Derrida’s the rewriting of the absolute relations, so it reveals the process of the reconstruction like hypallage and fusing.
The work of researcher is not a mechanical structure with the function nor a living thing. Unintended things is blended in the same space and built in an ambiguous form. Then, because the distinguishable character of the things gives effects to each other, it may exert a greater influence or becomes fragmentation accidentally. That is, the true faith is separated. ‘The separation of faith’ can be interpreted as the researcher’s consciousness like the following.
Researchers feels the law dangerous that made by human who hopes and longs an ideal is wrapped as a truth. In other words, it means the situation that people believe the succeeded thought, theory, and the law by blind faith and acknowledge it as a absolute and universal truth. However, due to the emergence of hybrid that made unexpected circumstances, it began to take power to deny beyond doubt. That is the deconstruction of ‘A Universal Truth’ from the current human being trying to research the God’s area.
Like this, the work series of the researcher is giving a critical guideline not to be in the ceased and fixed situation. It starts with ‘breaking’ and ‘fragmentation’ and becomes the ignition with pleasure of delight that denies ‘universal truth’ as a mutation of chaos.
