Abstract

This paper sets out to offer an analysis of the specific context of remote working from a domestic space during the lockdown imposed by the Covid-19 crisis. Referring to the works of Henri Lefebvre on rhythms and spaces, this article develops a critical account of the impact that the intrusion of labour rhythms from workplaces to domestic spaces, especially through the mediation of information and communication technologies. Furthermore, the argument brings rhythmanalysis in dialogue with other theories that highlight the affordances of digital technologies to act as powerful pharmaka that take part in the process of individuation, and de facto its destruction. Finally, the essay reminds the call for theorists such as Bernard Stiegler to be more careful in the way they study and describe the non-human. When technophobic ideas cannot help to warn us about the ideological domination of technologies, that may act as instruments of alienation in those troubled times, when the quotidian is being locked in limited spaces with digital devices, there is more than even a need for a radical immanent critique that help us to think with and not despite the assemblage of beings, things, and rhythms that compose our everyday life.
生活在工作室。对封锁期间的日常进行(节奏)分析的要素
本文旨在分析在Covid-19危机造成的封锁期间从家庭空间远程工作的具体背景。参考Henri Lefebvre关于节奏和空间的作品,本文对劳动节奏从工作场所侵入家庭空间的影响进行了批判性的描述,特别是通过信息和通信技术的调解。此外,该论点将节奏分析与其他理论进行了对话,这些理论强调了数字技术作为参与个性化过程的强大药物的能力,以及事实上的破坏。最后,这篇文章提醒了伯纳德·斯蒂格勒(Bernard Stiegler)等理论家在研究和描述非人类的方式上要更加谨慎的呼吁。当技术恐惧的想法无法帮助我们警告技术的意识形态统治时,在那些混乱的时代,当普通人被数字设备锁在有限的空间里时,甚至需要一种激进的内在批判,帮助我们思考,而不是无视构成我们日常生活的生命、事物和节奏的集合。
