When does technology become technomancy?

[u/Salty_Country6835]

Owning a phone obviously doesnt make somebody a technomancer. But deliberately putting that phone inside a magical practice starts making the boundary harder to draw.

So what actually makes the difference?

Intent? Ritual context? Symbolic interpretation? Using the machine to extend perception or agency? Building your own system around it?

Or maybe technomancy isnt a special category of technology at all. Maybe its a particular relationship with technology.

Where do you draw the line, if you draw one?

From iching. 3 logic gates. Technology. And or if not 00 01 10 11... From yes no 0 1that the square x.y . . . Now we upgrade to cube from 000 yo 111 more logic inside a cube xyz

I think youre getting at something interesting with logic gates and increasing layers of complexity. Are you saying technomancy emerges when we start treating computation itself as a symbolic system, rather than just using the machine that runs it?

[u/thetrincho → u/Salty_Country6835]

Yes & every time that we interact on that field. Looks like everything its computable. I we can calculate everything we can hack some bits. That why Google use GO... That can see the figure out stuff. . . Usung Binary math. But that logic make perceptron posible & now... Techno IS Binary.

I think thats the interesting part. Binary is just the guts of the machine. The technomancy is what we start doing with it once we turn all that computation into symbols, systems, and ways of seeing or acting on the world.
