Clarifiafor the Techno-Conspiracy - Cognitive Mindedness of the Dictionary of Technology

Summary/Abstract: Conceptual production of the journal Vidici (Horizons), particularly its thematic issue The Dictionary of Technology, represents the cultural content that preserves the sparklein under standing the technological aspects of socialand mental alienation and reification. Even to day it has not lost its ideological and theoretical relevance. It allows more accurate interpretation and a better understanding of the ideological trends as well as political and cultural events at the University of Belgrade in the first years after the death of Josip Broz Tito. Time period which is marked as an early post-Titoism (1980–1983) has been explored poorly, and many interesting and significant events from the past were suppressed by the subsequent dramatic historical events. Special actu a lity of the Dictionary has been given by the harsh ideological criticism exposed in the form of the Analysis of the Dictionary of Technology that appeared as anonym material used by political forums and mainstream media to controvert and ban the Dictionary. While the authors of the Dictionary, based on metaphorical and allegorical in sights, tried to get in sight into the forthcoming crisis of the Yugoslav society, composers of Analysis wanted to defend blindly ideologically outlined stripe.
