FLYING

by Marcus Steinweg

Flying implies all the risks of lifting off, of speed and crashing. Flying demands the courage to an unknown movement into the unknown. Flying is the form of movement of philosophy, of another philosophy withdrawn from evidence, from light and enlightenment, from the imperatives of facts, from the dictatorship of the light of facts, to hold itself in readiness for the dream of a new enlightenment dreamt by Nietzsche, for the dream of a new enlightenment emancipated from the obscurantism of facts which unleashes the dreams of a new, coming philosophy, a new reason, a new responsibility and thus another world of light. Like every dream, the dream of this other light, the dream of truth, is the event of a liberation and unleashing which can no longer close itself off to the truth of the dream. It is as if it were a matter of remaining watchful for this double truth, for the dream of truth and for the truth of dream beyond the ruling certainties and the norm of truth represented by them.
